Who would EVER give business to a place that starts by trying to trick you?
So you never patronize any business that uses the .99 and .95 pricing schemes? Gas stations are the worst offenders with their sub-penny pricing schemes.
Practically all ads exaggerate to the point of lying. "Luxury apartment for rent" <-- just a run of the mill apartment, not luxurious. Etc.
Business culture is a culiure of lies.
Fuck them all. I absolutely do avoid companies that do these things.
Have you or your parents never used a phone book to look up businesses and ended up calling A1 Plumbing, AAA locksmith, etc?
