56. First myth of black friday

outside of the loss lead items, a few and far between... the discouts ain't that deep... in fact they are not...

But the illusion is maintained... and people swallow it every year.

How loss lead works

You have ten units of a deeply discounted unit, that is popular such as the Best Buys Toshiba. They will take a loss in each one of those, but there are only ten of them... they got you in... you will look around, and the psycology says you believe all is discounted, so you will buy something else... and alas they don't make any loss for the day...

And this scam, and it is a scam, is very legal
