Apple Store
Now this is bizarre because Apple stores charge an entrance fee of $5 to see iPhone and next gen iPods, large crowds are flocking to see the iPhone and the next generation iPods so to beat the crowds Apple are charging customers which is totally crazy but hey what a way to make money.

The reason they are charging this entrance fee is to limit crowds to keep stores safe but they also want to keep the right kind of customer in the stores it was reported by a Vince Sciopiano the vice president of retail outlets, he also went on to say that by saying that of right customers he means true Apple customers with money and will to pay just to look at their newest wares.

In side the store geniuses will be there but outside the store their will be guards who will guard the window displays and entrances. So what do you get for $5? Well you will get an Apple button which allows you to enter the store and it is used to track customer’s movements.

Would you pay $5 to enter an Apple store?

    The source you referenced (but didn’t include in the article) for this story (BBSPOT) is a satire site. Apple isn’t charging money to get into their stores.
