CHEAP DOESN'T ALWAYS = BETTER.
Morning Everyone.
We've just had a regular customer come in (which is good) and buy Paraffin loose from us, we are probably THE ONLY place for miles around to sell it....
He asked how much our Sweeping brushes were....and after i told him the price his reply was
Customer:"They're half the price at the Sunday Market/Car Boot Sale....."
Me: "They don't pay rates or wages do they?"
Customer: " but they're half the price....."
Me: " Well, when we've closed because you buy your brushes there, and can't get your paraffin anywhere, then it's a problem!"
Customer: "mumbles...."
This illustrates the problem we face, with Car Boot Sales now selling NEW GOODS....we have to pay our VAT/ Rates/ Wages and these places dodge paying these things as far as i'm aware.
So not only do we have the Legitimate competition, we have this too!!
SO THINK BEFORE YOU BUY, CHEAPER ISN'T ALWAYS BEST!!!!
