Then there is no discount.  It's like the motels that claim to offer a discount for AAA membership or being old  or whatever.  When you walk into the office and ask for a price, it is quoted.  Then when you ask for the discount based on AAA or whatever, you are told, "Oh, that is the discounted price."  No, that is the regular price, and for a discount, take a flying leap off the canyon rim.
