Is this something to worry about?
The Citibank branch on 120 Broadway in the Financial District is selling bowls of fruit salad in the lobby for $2.50.

this is the weirdest thing ever. 30 years ago they would give you a washer dryer for opening an account. Now they sell salad?
ReplyDeletefruit salad? fruit salad? this is the best they can do? oh man, they'll be the next to fold.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it was strange...This woman in the lobby all-but-blocked the doorway and invited me to buy some..."It's really good!" (It actually looked good...) I just wanted to get out of the there...and transfer my account somewhere else...
ReplyDeleteAre you sure they were selling it only for $2.50 and not $250? The way they're charging their customers with 'bank' fees and cutting costs and trying to raise capital, I wouldn't be surprised if the price is the latter.
