The second row, captioned Thursday, depicts the same.
In the third row, captioned Black Friday, the there is a label with $1099.99 struck through with “$899.99” written underneath, and Wallace charges.
edit: grammar
I think its a thing here in norway as well. Thats why they just increase the price in early october, just a month ahead of black week bullcrap. Have seen plenty of electronics “super discounted” to the same price they had in september/october
It might actually work if the requirement was a year instead of 30 days.
Also mandate minimum font size for it and that it must be displayed along with the current price anywhere the current price appears.
I honestly think 1 year would be too far back to be actually relevant to the current price, but I can see a 3 month period being a good middle ground.
Big items I usually start watching a few months out. If I see a store or brand that pulls tthis garbage, I simply go elsewhere. If I can’t find it on offer, I buy it regular price at the smaller retail store.
