False Advert At Cna Store

It is a bit confusing i take as more than 50 but it can also be 50+ (meaning 50 and above 50 )
 
actually the whole ad is ridiculous, there is no explicit explanation on it anywhere... its more of a connect the dots and guess what it means
 
what mike hoxbig said above (for once he is correct)
50+ means from 50 onwards all prints are R1.99. CNA were in the wrong here, but there isn't much you can do about it.

And they printed the +1 and he went on his way. Shame.
 
Sheer laziness leads to misunderstanding.

"50+" has no real meaning, or is ambiguous as proven in this thread. I'd read it as "50 or more" though.

So much could be avoided if someone had had the work ethic to press a few extra keys on the program used to design the sign and had typed "Over 50" or "More than 50"

Fkn idiots. SMS speak and MXit talk getting in the way of communication yet again.

Think about it logically:

50+1=51 and not 52, as such it is 50 and any additional prints. No confusion, unless you work at CNA, are a manager and have a Grade 8 educashion.

Yeh but there's no such thing as (-1) in the real world. (-1) means they're taking from you.

*shrug* it's still syntactically valid based on their sign. Just emphasizing how stupid it is.
 
Please post pics of -1 x photo. Ktxbai

there more widely accepted usage I would say is that it means 50 or more. that said, i can see where the scope for ambiguity can come in. shocking from cna nonetheless.
