9-9-9 is same old "catchy" sales pitch that folks have been using for years...the $.99 cent burger, the $9.99 pizza, the $99.99 tire....

People just gobble it up without thinking....the one day sale....that makes you jump on the bandwagon. I thought freepers were smarter than that.

No, people actually learn about it. And when they bother to learn about it, they like it. See unlike you, most people are not totally closed minded about 999 out of a feverish ignorant love for the blessed St Rick.

I don’t understand how you can say that. There are massive threads right here on FR that refutes your claim. People are analyzing and researching everything about this plan.

From what I’ve seen, the ones who are against it are the ones who aren’t thinking. They just keep rehashing the same old arguments that are intelligently refuted time and time again.

If you turn "999" upside down, and you get "666."

Isn't 666 the mark of the beast?

Simple minds love simple “solutions.”

No it’s not. That pitch, perhaps the most brilliant in the history of advertising, is based on people mistakenly thinking the price is less than it is. In the case of the bruger, you think of the 0 instead of a dollar, for the pizza 9 dollars instead of 10, and the tire 99 instead of 100. What are you implying about Cain’s program? That it’s tricking people into thinking two of the three nines don’t exist? This is a poor analogy.

“People just gobble it up without thinking....the one day sale....that makes you jump on the bandwagon.”

You gobbled up the similarity between 9-9-9 and 9.99 without thinking, and thereby wasted my time.
