But having spent the morning at work listening to arguments over pricing models and perception of choice, I'm wondering if there's a point at which the number of beers on sale at a bar/club becomes counter-productive...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03387325466589229898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4108264242738379237.post-85556283015210812622012-09-25T15:12:17.955+01:002012-09-25T15:12:17.955+01:00What Tandy said.
