4. Best Buys

Best buy said the advert
But who decides what’s best
Is there some secret record
Or are they like the rest

The shoppers hear them shopping
Great deal’s we’re coming back
Influenced by special deals
Impressed by giant stack

This shopping is a science
With formulas for selling
Each manager has bought the stock
Head office has been telling

They told him where to stack it
In hot spots round his store
And adverts showing best buys
Would bring them back for more
