I Hate Discount Stores. They're All Deceptive. The Way They Advertise Is Misleading.

I hate discount stores. They're all deceptive. The way they advertise is
misleading. I spotted a sign, three o'clock in the morning. This is what
the sign said: "Stereo system, three-speaker, stereophonic record player,
hi-fi tape recorder, $17, first come first served."

Now, I spotted that sign at three o'clock in the morning--so I parked the
car right in front of the store all night. The doors open at 10 a.m. I'm
the first one in the store. I said, "Let me have that thing for seventeen
dollars." The guy says, "We sold it." I said, "To who?" He said, "To the
night watchman."
