Worth a sigh

I opened up the notification about the Kindle Daily Deal and saw a group of books, so I clicked on LEARN MORE and  . . . Oh no, it’s inspiring books again for $2.99 or less. But it wasn’t; you had to click on a small new Kindle book deals link to get there. I didn’t see that immediately, obviously.

I scrolled down the page of inspiring books and found The Art of Procrastination: A Guide to Effective Dawdling, Lollygagging and Postponing – like I’m not a master of that already. Then, two rows down was The Procrastinator’s Handbook: Mastering the Art of Doing It Now. They want $7.39 for it; I think I can put that off. The former one was priced at $9.39, which is obviously an inside joke between the author and procrastinators.

The prices were what tipped me off to the fact that maybe this wasn’t the daily deal. Here, look at the page yourself:

Don’t you think it’s misleading? Well, I’m inspired to be more alert when deals are offerred. (And, yes, 2 r’s in offerred – take that, modernized computer spelling guides.
