    No deal... $3.99 on drugstore.com and rei.com all day, everyday. Where does amazon come up with the $10 list price?!

    ^ Some of us have the view that if you were planning to buy something anyway, whoever has the lower price has the deal.

    "^ Some of us have the view that if you were planning to buy something anyway, whoever has the lower price has the deal."

    I don' t understand. If some of us have a view, that if #1 was planning to buy something anyway, whomever has the lower price has the deal. Does that mean some of us dictate to #1 that he must buy from the lower price vendor for something he was planning to buy?

    What leverage does some of us have over #1 to force him to buy from the lowest price vendor? For instance, would he be kicked off the Tactical Night Time Neighborhood Toilet Papering Squad if he didn't? Would his Ben's Bargains rep score drop significantly if he didn't follow expectations? Would someone phone his m*om and rat him out about him smoking pot behind the school?

    You're right, I can't force him or her to pay less for anything... but it is sorta what the 'site is about. Some things just don't go on sale for 50% off.

    Wow zzyzx, you jumped his Sh!t for saying what "some of us" do. You attacked him for attacking the first poster, which he did not. You must have been aching to use the toilet paper squad team whatever, trying to be funny. Dave C shoulda been lambasted for missuse of whoever. Now that is flame-worthy.

    I'm rarely serious. Dave's is a retail deal all star around here... That's why I facetiously poked fun at him. Being facetious has been a SOP around here for years and years.

    Relax and have some fun...

    I got suckered into the "10 count" claim. It's actually 5 individually wrapped Cliff Bars. In each wrapper, there are 2 waffer thingies. Not as great a deal as it sounds.

    Ben simply passes to the manufacturer's half truth when it has been posted here many times that there are actually 5 pouches with two smallish bars in each one (fine print on the box). The health conscious dorks keep folks like this in business. But it's all worth it to them since they are getting 70% certified organic ingredients... The other 30% is insignificant, I guess. With a list price of $10, I'd rather eat a Twinkie...

    I'm not paying $3.79 for waffer thingies no matter what flavor they are.

    Total garbage. Super expensive. No deal here, no matter how you cut it.

    In the body building world these are known as fat bars.
