Whereas our friend [MENTION=4958]Tay[/MENTION];'s lovely flower arrangements for Michael's, in the USA, are all "50% off" the moment they're created. And you better believe the store still makes a nice profit off them, or they wouldn't be paying him to make them.
Misleading pricing tricks are the same all over the world.
