    I like how this kind of implies that they want you at the 20-30% discount mark. Too fat? Stop eating. Too skinny? Please, gorge yourself on the house!

      At 20-30% off you are paying only 70-80% markup. The 10% off guy is getting 90% markup. No restaurant would create something like this if they weren’t marking up the menu to start with.

      You don’t think about how much extra you are paying because you are too busy thinking about the discount you got squeezing yourself through a sign.
