This may not qualify as "false advertisement", but it sure is annoying and intended to deceive. It may get you in the store, which is all they want to do to begin with.
Also, stores will advertise a GREAT sale on a particular item, but when you get there, they don't have it. Sure they will offer you a rain check, however, I believe they are counting on you buying another product or products while you are there. It's called bate and switch.
All very sneaky and underhanded if you ask me.
Grocery stores do the same, Great price on an item, but the small print requires you to buy it in quantity.
There is so much deceit in advertising. Great price, with many exclusions.... another for instance, hotel rates, additional charges MAY apply: such as Sales Tax, State Tax, Gratuity, housekeeping charges, phone, TV, cable, linens, how many times you flush the toilet......
yada yada yada |
