Don't ya just want to call them and speak directly to the shmuck that came up with that brilliant value added strategy?

Here's something funny though...

We have something called GST here in Canada. It's a goods and service tax that use to be 7% (it's now 6%). It is charged on ANY goods or service over and above the price. People hate paying taxes so years ago (when it was fairly new)  we had a NO GST sale. Whoopie... a whole 7% right? It was a huge success believe it or not!

Now try having a 7% off sale and see what the response is... It's all about perception right?

In the spirit of giving the dollar it's due, I just sold a used 2006 Solana SX to a happy family for just $1 down:

I'll bet they could have held out and bargained that down to three quarters.

There's only one place I know that a dollar still holds it value:

Strip Clubs.  

20 years ago  it tooke 1 dollar to get the dancer over to your side of the stage, and (so I have been told) today a dolllar still gets you a naked women shaking her mommy parts for several minutes.      

How the hell can they charge you $9.95 for  a warm Budweiser, but a perfetly good naked woman gratiously  dancing in front of you is still only  $1.00?!!?!?!?

God Bless America.  :)

Steve man you gotta stop sniffing Dichlor, GST has been 5% since January 01 2008.  You are the one ruining the economy by not buying anything otherwise you would know the tax man. ;) ;) ::)
