THE ELITE
CHEAP!
Is a distinction of quality, not of price. Only in a slang sense does 'it
mean that which so many buyers take it to mean actuolly.
In buying groceries we make our selections for what they actually are
not because the price would make them seem what they are not.
Everything in this store ia cheap cheap as designating high quality and
fittingly low-price.
Many merchants can supply you with goods cheaper, in the slang sense
but not cheaper in actual worth. We can make this statement with a
good deal of emphasis, because we know that we are adding a smaller
margin of prolit to the actual cost of the goods than is the custom among
other grocers.
