A few years ago there was a shop in Glasgow called "The Guitar Store" and every year their promotional vibe was that for one day only they'd sell brand new guitars for 99 pence! (that's just under a £pound and slightly more than one dollar!). Folks, we're talking a MAJOR case of people flocking to sleep outside the shop in the streets here!
I remember standing outside the joint for ages one time, freezing my arse off in the snow from about 4 in the morning onwards.
But by the time I eventually got inside the shop, they had sold all of the 99p guitars. All I got that day was a couple of free plectrums that I had to fight for on my hands and knees in a violent scramble.
The bastards!
Anyway, I guess you'll not be surprized to hear that they've now shut down.
