Taco Bell Commercials

Everyone is a crazy idiot lunatic.
The latest is a man screaming in delight that a double decker taco costs 99 cents after he receives his precious taco. This women then explains the cause of his insane enthusiasm is because he thought he was purchasing just one taco. That point seems to be lost since you have to specifically order the 99 cent double decker taco in the first place.

It's like all the advertising that states "buy our stuff and SAVE money!"
Yeah, because spending 50$ instead of 75$ is somehow saving....

How is not spending 25 extra dollars not saving?

Haha, I know. Furniture and Cable Companies do this schtick all the time. All of a sudden they're like 50% off. But it's all bogus.Quote:

You're still spending money. The discounts are manipulated.

These places intentionally mark up prices for a short period of time just to say there's a discount.

The more redic the commericial, the more likely you are to remember it, or have it stuck in your head. The more likely it's stuck in your head, the more likely you're going to think about it, the more likely you are to think about it, the more likely you are to crave it, then buy it.
Simple marketing.
On a side note, last christmas there was an Abercrombie that had hoodies on sale for 50% off, making them 100$ What people didn't realize is that 2 weeks before the sale, they were only 100$
They marked them up to mark them "off" to make you think you are getting a deal.
Companies are shady. Go to mom and pop places as often as you can, because 9/10 they are good, honest, hard working people. Just trying to get your business, and not rip you off.
