...at least 50% of our customers would want to know what was wrong with the product that required us to discount it.

"It's contaminated with radioactive waste and causes genetic mutations, tumors, hair loss, and withering of the reproductive organs."
"Oh, I see. But....50% off! I'll take two!"
I was trying to ring a sale today....of course, I had called the custy to tell them their special order was in....but not in the POS system.
*blorp* "Product not found"
"Oh, that means it's free!"
"Excuse me, I have to run in the back for a second."
