Is the sales tax in your area 7.5% by any chance?
$16 x (100/107.5)= $14.88
I don’t see any gloves priced at 14.88 on their website at a quick check. I wonder if the store is trying to set a price that tallies to an even dollar amount and doesn’t know the connotation. I only recently learned about those numbers being associated so I would like to believe a benign explanation. Maybe you could ask to talk to a store manager next time you see it an make sure they know to avoid that price point.
They already thought of that. The department of education has already been dismantled. If there are no school nights there’s no problem, right?
