Salesmen are trained not to take no for an answer, and many word games and phrases come into play in order for them to get you to close the deal.

Advertisers and marketers are there to mess with your head so that they can make you buy things. Some of the best words and phrases that make a consumer buy products are amazingly well worded, while others are not.

Think about it - when marketers use carefully written strategies, you can often think that you are getting a deal, when in actuality you could be paying more.
