The Store That Sells For Cash Only
Can and Does Sell For Less.
The Kafoury Store Proves It
Every Day
It is an established fact that one of the largest
stores in New York City sells and buys for cash
only, and it is a recognized fact that this store
does sell for less in consequence of which it does
an enormous business.
Now then if the people of New York City have
found it to their advantage to buy for cash at this
store, isn't it just as reasonable that the people
of Salem should find it advantageous and profit
able to buy at this store, and pay cash and effect
the saving that we effect by selling for cash only.
Just think this matter over. You will cone to the
conclusion that it pays too well to buy for cash.
