The Hollywood Video store near us is going out of business. We went in to check to see if we could find any cheap DVD's, Blue Rays, or Wii games. I was looking at some Blue Rays when I noticed the sign.
Orig. $25.99
60% off
Now: 12.98
Huh? I didn't need a calculator to do that math.
I asked one of the employee's what the actual price was. The conversation went as follows...
Him: They are $12.98
Me: Then why does it say they are %60 off, that's 50%.
Him: (Rudely) It doesn't matter what it says, they are $12.98!
Me: Do you know your signs say they are 60% off (They had about 5 signs that said 60% off)
Him: THEY ARE $12.98!
Me: You are really good at FUZZY MATH!
Then I put everything back we were going to get and walked out of the store.
I wasn't trying to get a BETTER deal, I was just trying to clarify which price was correct and make them aware of the mistake on their signs. DON"T GET AN ATTITUDE...I DIDN'T MAKE THE SIGNS. I just did the math!

A. I think maybe all of Hollywood video is going out of business because I see them everywhere saying "store closing."
B. What an idiot..... I sure hope you weren't the first one to notice this and I sure hope you are not the last to bring it to attention.
That store is EVIL. We had problems with the employees too. I think its become a breeding ground of idiocy and rudeness. Nice on letting them know whats up and standing your ground.
That had me laugh out loud! I hope he wasn't a grad of byu-i! lol
Wow.... Maybe if they did their math better they wouldn't be going out of business. Just a thought! haha
I was thinking the same thing Sonja! haha
