It's like the grocery store that was closing out a slow-selling product. I don't remember the exact dollar amounts, but they set up a display near the check-out advertising them something like "Closeout - $0.99 Each" and they still didn't sell. After a couple of days the manager crossed out the "$0.99 Each" and wrote "Closeout - 3 for $5" and they all sold that day.
