I really enjoy the law in my country that requires companies to show alongside the current price the lowest price in the last 30 days.
-
In my country they have to be called out on it, but to verify a discount, they have to prove that they were actively selling it at the undiscounted price for a period of about 4 weeks or so. Unfortunately a lot of this is subverted by brands inflating the recommended retail price and then the stores just show a discount from RRP
-
So you get to have the raised prices for an extra month? What do you enjoy about that?
-
They need to survive a month trying to sell something at inflated prices to then discount it. That generates losses for them - storage, space on the shelves, delayed new stuff etc. It's long enough to force them to actually discount shit.
-
I enjoy that they've had to raise prices above what consumers might pay for an entire month if they want to play this trick on me.
