That's like back a few years ago in Canada, every once in a while certain gas stations would drop their price by say $0.10/liter for a day. This of course got broadcast on all the radio stations, prompting loads of people to take half a day off work, and sit in line at a gas station for hours with their car idling, just to save $4 on their next fill up.
They probably burned more than $4 in gas while their car was idling for hours, waiting to fill up, let alone losing half a day of work / wages. And I can just picture these guys going home to their spouses, saying "Hey honey, managed to save us some money on gas today. You know... this is how the world works. If you want to make it, you have to keep your eye on the ball like this.".
