However, it is well to remember that sales are not all alike! One store may offer a bigger reduction than another, but if the smaller reduction is from a lower regular price the “big” reduction loses its meaning. People know that this store’s regular prices were the lowest possible. They also know that reductions here are genuine, and that being made from prices already low, the savings are real. Add to these facts the impor- tant one that our merchandise is of the latest style and most trustworthy quality and the appeal of September Sale prices here should prove well nigh irresistible.
