Why? Because the price of the second item is already baked in, or what? Why is it fake? Is this a low-IQ post, or do you have any more explanation to back up your claim?

SnR always has good buy-one-take-one deals

It means you're forced to buy two. It can be annoying sometimes. The pizza place we go to a lot is either buy-one-take-one or you pay more for just one. You can end up gaining weight.

Buy one at three times the normal price, get one free. If you don't check prices, that's your problem. Also, I don't need two of everything, so buying more would be a total waste. Just buy what you need and stick to it. And for what it's worth: grocery stores run on about a 5% margin. There's zero chance they could give you 50% off without losing money. Clothing stores have margins of 300% or more. They could throw in a second item and still make money.

Oh, I'm in Texas and I'm doing a BOGO all weekend. I'm not fake.
