#16: The “Going Out of Business” Sale
Every neighborhood has a store that’s been “going out of business” for well over a decade. We all know the ones. They’re usually cheap furniture stores that no one goes to because their products are so poorly made. Every single one of these stores has a giant “Going Out of Business!” sign hanging from the front.
There’s nothing like the promise of 90% off to lure people in, right? The thing is these stores never actually close. They’re always on the brink of collapse, but they still hang on. It’s baffling that these stores still exist. Maybe the store owners just like to live on the edge.
