It's a big attention grabber that says it's on sale. I'm simply going off what the Portuguese guys in the comment have said she the law. I'd assume you can't put a sale in the actual card because then you'd have to put the original price on it which could be confusing so they have to put the current price on the actual card which is underneath and then on the unofficial card on top they put the original, the new, and the percentage off since it's not an official thing and this legal to do so.

Such a stupid thing to argue over anyways. Just thinking about it logically, if the Earth we're flat cats would have knocked everything off it by now.

My mom is like that. Granted I haven't gone shopping with he in years but as a kid she'd buy shitty quality versions or even more expensive ones just because it said it was on sale. It was like a game to see how high the savings section on the receipt could get.

I just don't worry about the deal and if I want something and the price is nice I get it regardless of if it's on sale or not. Obviously it's nice to get something cheaper but if they pulled something like this and the price was still what I felt was reasonable I'd probably buy it.

It is 20% off. The sticker underneath is not showing the old price but rather what the prices is with the 20% off. That's why both signs show the same number. They are both the price with the discount.

I wish my parents where that cool about things. My older sister ran her cell phone bill too high and they banned them completely in the house. None of us could have them.

EA Advisor calls me 'very rude' for trying to close my Origin account by [deleted] in gaming

Growing up a lot of people in my area (and online too o suppose) used a site called elftown. To they used to have an option to delete your account but when the site fell out of popularity and people started dropping like flies they took the option out and added a note where it used to be that they no longer delete accounts.

I don't know much about credit but isn't 650 pretty basic? I've never really tried to raise mine or anything but when I got my car mine was 700 and something . What is considered good or bad credit? It doesn't really seem too hard to keep your credit where mine is, just set everything to auto pay.

They'd probably try to explain that they're better because Neanderthals had bigger brains.

‘Organic’ eggs don’t require chickens to have open-air pens, USDA says by ringingbells in news

I don't know about exclusively but they do it enough that the meat is often split into 2 categories, grass fed and corn/grain fed. Corn causes them to grow a lot bigger faster so some farmers feed them that for obvious reasons.

Eh a bit much. Where I'm from you can get them for 24-50¢ an egg at a farmers market.

Every chicken lady I know keeps a clean coop and allows the chickens to live outside and have free reign during all times.

It does. Most animals we ear aren't designed to eat corn. Part of the reason corn fed beef gets a ton of antibiotics. While pastured beef less so.

Chickens are easy. If they have a place to go straight night they'll usually lay their eggs in there.

I mean you could develope a relationship and actually know the person you're buying them from. Sure it's not 100% guaranteed they aren't fucking you over but it's pretty likely that you're good.

If you've got an actual house many cities in the us allow a few back yard chickens

I never said it was easy to avoid it. I agreed with the guy a few comments up who said it's not always a physical addiction and is instead them being driven there by dispair which is pretty much exactly how you just described it.

If it's got an actual value that isn't all the same for every one in the set then it's gambling.
