Rajan, a customer of Jacky's looking for a Radio set. Rajan is particularly interested in purchasing a Radio, according to Michelle, the sales manager for the consumer electronics department at the cheap retailer. He informs Jacky, the salesperson at the cheap store where he believes he will get the best bargain, that his old radio recently died and he is desperate to listen up on his favourite songs. The sooner he can purchase and receive a replacement radio, the better, he explains. Jacky is aware that in three and a half weeks, the model Rajan appears to prefer significantly more than the others will go on sale for 10% off. He suspects, though, that Rajan is not willing to wait that long and may seek employment elsewhere. Additionally, Jacky will get less commission on the discounted price.

A sales representative in a shopping centre handed Karl a flyer promoting a style cut and shave for $12 at Lion’s Mane Barber Shop. As he was actually in need of a haircut and shave, Karl dropped by the barber shop, which was also located in the same shopping centre. When he arrived at the shop and presented his flyer to one of the barbers, he was told that there had been an error in the statement of price on the flyer - it was supposed to be $22 and not $12. The shop manager tried to convince Karl that this was still a bargain price given that a style cut and shave would normally cost $30 in other barbershops. Karl got upset, as he passed by two other barbershops in the same shopping centre that sold haircuts and shaves for $20 to $25. If he had known about the supposed mistake in the Lion’s Mane flyer, he wouldn’t have bothered coming to the shop. Answer the following: Does Karl have any legal grounds to claim the price of $12?
