Selling Strict y for Cash Eft LETTER.DAYS OF SALE Tuesday Julie 28th,Wednesday 29th, Thursday 30th agd.Satirday. July 2nd Now and then this store does sensational things. -by planning and watching we find opportunities to sell for 50c or 60c, articles really worth $1. You ask, how can we do this? The advantages we have over other stores are "Syndicate Buying", anct because we sell. for cash only. ' Our syndicate.Stores handle vast lots of goods, and of course gain many ad- vantages that come Of large buying. Then, this being a CASH STORE, we sell to you for Cash at lowest prices. Its only sound reasoning when we say that the Credit systeMin vogue in some old established stores is as far behind present business methods ats the old horse -cars are behind the present trolley system. Credit is is no advantage to you --the bills have to be paid sometime, and just as- sure as night follows day you will pay dearly for the privilege of getting credit. The creditfirm always, have their eyes on the dollar_compounded,- and they prefer to get the long price in merchandise, and let their friends that pay cash contrib.. ute the difference for bad accounts. Its up to you to study your interests—you people who buy on credit and you people Who pay cash at the Credit§tore. There are no bad debts in this store, for - there are no debts; You do not have to pay for those who do not pay. That Ls the difference between Newcombe's and the credit stores.
