People are fucking idiots.
I see that quite often nowadays.

A big fucking sign out front that reads "LIQUIDATION SALE!!! - you go inside and find they're only 'liquidating' their current merch...yet staying in business.

Deceptive marketing. In days gone by - a liquidation sale meant they were going belly-up shortly.
