Oops!

Thanks Jarred, I remember thinking “I really should check this before I click publish.”

That’ll teach me not to blog and write a presentation simultaneously! I’ve corrected the numbers in the post.

Not that it changes your point, but you’ve got the statistic inverted:

82.0% said they looked a the policies most of the time or every time they shopped.

0.2% actually looked at the policies.
