Elaine is looking for a good buy on a winter coat. She sees the ad shown on the left. It says that the
prices at Smiths are low. But the ad doesn't say anything about a sale. It does say "Everyday Low Prices".
Those are the store's regular prices.
Elaine looks for more ads and finds the one on the right. It shows two prices for each coat. The first
price shown is the sale price. It's written larger than the regular price. Elaine thinks that even the sale price
for the ski jacket seems high. She looks back at the Smiths ad. She sees the same ski jacket advertised.
Smiths regular price is lower, so Elaine decides to shop at Smiths.
