I have some rules of thumb about gardening catalogues: when they say
"blue", they're probably lying, and when they add an exclamation mark
to anything, they're certainly lying. "New" is a falsehood, too: you
get genuinely new varieties from specialists, not from mass-marketers,
and most it means "this hasn't been in our catalogue before".

"...and AT THE most...", of course.
The agencies also have a selection of petite models to make goods look
big in photographs.
The same models they use for selling small boats with inadequate
headroom?
Yep. An exception to the general rule that one must be tall to be a
model.

And when they say "For Only" you know it is expensive.
And 'under £1000, when it is 'only' £999.99'!

Why are so many car sales at £*995 ?
Are YOU fooled? Does it look cheaper to you?
