if you read it, normally to buy 3 would cost 3.29, or is there something else I am missing?

Yeah so if you bought 3 it would be

2/$2.00 + 1/$1.29 = $3.29

instead they are saving you the 29 cents.

its not rocket science

maybe you didn't have the money for 4.
maybe you don't want 3.
maybe the store is trying to rip you off.
maybe there is a limit on the sale and you can only get 2.

no, they're forcing him to buy MORE to qualify for the same percentage savings (19.3%)

no, if a store is selling two junior mints for 2$, where they regularly would be $1.29, its a sale on junior mints. the sale price would be split per item. its like going to food dog and buying a bag of chips for $1.50 when the sale is buy one get one free on a $3 bag. there aren't really sales that require you to buy a certain number of items.

[Edited on March 8, 2009 at 12:15 AM. Reason : ergo, 3/3$ is the same sale.]

But they're Junior Mints, everyone loves Junior Mints.

It's a problem for MythBusters.

Maybe we don't need MythBusters, I guess Ronny can just do it on his own.

that isn't true at all. Victoria's Secret has always told me that they really do require you to purchase the quantity stated to get the deal. whether they are lying whores i do not know, but it isn't the only place I've been actually required to buy a minimum quantity.

No, at walgreens you do have to buy the number of items to get the retail price. buy 3 for $3 or 2 for $2.58 when they'd normally be 2 for $2. But the fucked up thing is after you reach that quantity, each additional one will ring up for a dollar. So everyday you can get them 3 for $3 or 5 for $5 etc.

This is one of the MANY things that shows how stupid this chain is. I only shop there when they give me free stuff because of stuff like this.
