Then again, with businesses re-opening maybe this is a way to try and get people to actually go to the stores again.  I personally don\u2019t see why a phone company would really need foot traffic in these cases during these times.  But would you actually do this for your business?<\/p>\n<p>It makes more sense if it was something like a grocery store I feel where a lot of purchases are often a result of someone going inside where with proper merchandising people can then get the urge to buy something on the spot that they think is a good deal.  I don\u2019t think I have ever went to a phone store to browse around and then all of a sudden decide I want a phone I didn\u2019t really need as well as a two year plan.
