CARRY FLASHLIGHT
If you live on a street with-
out sidewalks, always carry a
flashlight after dark or a tote
bag or other object with plenty
of luminous tape on it, to catch
light from approaching car head
headlights. On dark roads it is
difficult for the driver to see
persons walking unless they are
wearing very light clothes or
carrying a conspicuous object.

Well, if you can believe their advertising, some dealers sell
them for "below cost." And you can't get much lower than that.
The only trouble is that this kind of advertising is usually
double talk that doesn't really mean what is says. But it does
get results. If nothing else, it gives the dealer a "low price
image" in the customer's mind. After that, selling him is much
easier.
The only one it doesn't work for is the customer, who
invariably ends up paying more in the end due to insufficient
or no pre-delivery service, hidden extras and meaningless
promises.
If a dealer sold his cars at below cost, or even at cost, other
dealers would beat a path to bis door. Incidentally, be would
also soon be bankrupt.
A solution to his problem is suggested by an advertisement
of a Japanese used car dealer: "We pay highest prices for cars
we buy. We get lowest prices for cars we sell. How we stay
in business? We lucky."
National profit averages on sales for dealers, including
Wingham is less than 2 cents on the dollar. This low figure
comes from healthy competition. A quality dealer will still
render good service with :honest ‘dealings While he meets the
competition. His low price is more real than an image. See
you next Thursday.
