Always a gimmick to everything.
The exclusion list is right there, black and white, clear as crystal.

Prices were never charged. I worked there in HS and sometimes items came in with the "discount" tags already on them. The discount makes you think that you are getting a deal but reality is they never plan on charging the "real " price :(
