Michaels pisses me off with their constantly running 70% off custom frames sale. If its always on sale, then its not a sale. And somehow it still costs the same or more than other people who don't have that sale. sounds like they inflate their prices to begin with

A few years back, JC Penney got rid of inflated prices and constant "sales" in favor of "everyday low prices" (often less than the sale prices). Sales went down 25% . . . i.e., consumers like sales and to believe that they are getting a deal on something even if they aren't

reminds of that marketing scheme with Wendy's that failed because americans all thought 1/3 of a pound was less than a 1/4 of a pound.

I love them idea with the tickets as background. I need to work on locating a few other bands/musicians picks. A Neil and Tom Petty would be priority #1.

How have I never seen Tool or Metallica? So dumb of me.

True. I only saw Metallica once on Justice tour. Tool never. Like them but the music feels like an assault on all of my senses +.
