    Kind of like how banks did it on their credit cards to swindle cash from consumers.

    And the 'fees' were generally coming from banks, not retailers. Retailers just have strict expiry dates so the card becomes worthless. So tell me Mr. Free Market Economist extraordinaire how will companies that make millions of dollars in profit from unused gift cards and fees justify raising prices on retail products?

    Well that was easy, I'm glad you've seen the light. They're not losing money in the first place so they won't raise prices. Bravo swamps I knew you had it in ya.

    Uh...you asked how will they justify it and I said they won't b/c they don't have to. Not they won't raise prices b/c they don't have to.

    They wouldn't be losing money in the first place, they just wouldn't be on the receiving end of ill-gotten gains. So they have to justification for raising prices over money that isn't lost. This is bonus money they earn using underhanded tactics.

    They won't be losing money, they just won't be receiving money anymore. Thus, they have no justification for raising prices over money they won't be losing, but don't receive anymore. This money they won't be losing, but not receiving anymore, was earned underhandedly.

    Right, we've established you agree with me a few posts ago, then you said no, and now you're agreeing with me again. But I guess you want to do it on your terms cause internets is serious business.

    If you read this and think I agree with you...I don't know what to say. I thought it was clearly pointing out the idiocy of your argument.
