Oh, I understand. It's what you guys call a barn sale. Or bum sale?

I call it marketing. No need to read anything deeper into it.

Whether it's effective beyond grabbing your attention is hard to tell. At least it shows that they're concerned with the, errm, bottom line.

I've heard of some American idiom called a "bum's rush" ...

uwe · May 09, 2012, 04:45:06 PM

That's a rash way of putting it.

must be a rum bash

a bum's rush is physically throwing some clown out of your place of business. usually a bar.

A hand in the bush is worth more than two free birds.

As long as the gardener's kept up with the maintenance and the shrubbery is well tended.

So I was at my local GC today and saw one in person, as they say "Beauty is only skin deepbut ugly goes down to the bone".

Aesthetics matter - I'm just that shallow

That's not shallow at all. If it doesn't look right to you, you can't enjoy it even if it sounds good.
