Tired of all that bullshit the government has been giving about how to reduce
|
|
inflation? Well here is the real way to cut your bills:
|
|
|
|
I Super-Markets
|
|
The next time you visit your local rippoff center that claims to have the
|
|
lowest prices in town, you can make sure that they keep that promise.
|
|
When you catch an employee loafing on the job borrow (permanently) his or her
|
|
little price tag gun. After several minutes of examination and trial you can
|
|
stamp your own prices just like the pro. Need I go further? Of couse. Just
|
|
for good relations take all those funny little rolls of stickers that are used
|
|
to show when there is a special and all the blank rolls for the tag gun. Beware
|
|
Make sure that the product you stamp with your gun is the same as the tag is.
|
|
Some tags are pre labled: Grocery, candy, milk, etc. Make sure the tag matches
|
|
the item. Never remark items that are common. Many times the cashiers know
|
|
the price. Also, with your "special" strikers be careful. Many times they are
|
|
distributed by the manufacturer of the product. If you are in a hurry just
|
|
take the price tag off the cheapest bargin brand and put it on the best quality
|
|
brand. This can be tricky if not impossible becausee some places have price
|
|
tags that are pre-cut, so they fall apart if you try that.
|
|
|
|
II Counter Espionage and other Tricks for all of you that shoplift (or are
|
|
about to begin) here are some tips:
|
|
-Stay away from large Malls and Shopping centers, it's like narc city. The
|
|
Narcs like it there because they can bust little kids for shoplifting candy.
|
|
-Keep your eyes open for mirrors, two way mirrors, cameras and nosey clerks.
|
|
-If you are with a partner keep your mouth shut. They have hidden mics in
|
|
those tall columns that seem to hold up the roof.
|
|
-Avoid all large silvered objects. In on place I know, they put small
|
|
cameras in large christmas balls (Merry Christmas Huh?)
|
|
-Look for people that you always see in the same store and for people who
|
|
walk around like zombies and pay more attention to the people in the store than
|
|
the products.
|
|
-Avoid all people with 2-way radios. They are most definitly no hams with
|
|
their 2 meter.
|
|
If you decide to shoplift (naughty you), remember all you have to do is
|
|
remove the item from its package and take off all store marking and tags and
|
|
they cannot prove the item is not yours. Use display models if possible, be-
|
|
cause you can fiddle with them without suspicion. If you think the risk of
|
|
getting caught is too great or you cannot get it because of its size (I know a
|
|
guy who shoplifted a 20" crock pot) you can still get it at a greatly reduced
|
|
price. Many places use felt tip markers or pens to show reductions. When a
|
|
store has a clearance sale just come on in and make your own reductions (not
|
|
too outrageous please). Sometime the cashier will be suspicious and go and
|
|
check your items price against one on the shelf. The only way to beat this is
|
|
to mark all the items down. This way you can also buy several and you do a
|
|
public service for the regular customers. My last trick is to use a high
|
|
quality eraser and erase the first digit of the price. I have done this one
|
|
several times with chips and other expensive parts. Some of those clerks ar as
|
|
blind as riveted bulkheads. The real price was stamped on the package right
|
|
next to the erased price tag. I still saved 10 American (worthless dollars)
|
