Comment on What is happening with Tesla (TSLA) stock currently? đ
XeroxCool@lemmy.world â¨4⊠â¨weeks⊠ago$14.88 is an obnoxiously common price for temporary box display items at home depot. Gloves, kneeling pads, drill bit kits. Always gets an eyebrow from me
My assumption of good faith for it happening once is going for as close to $15 as possible but trying to avoid $14.99 because that is too obvious and just went to the next double number down.
But repeatedly? There is zero chance that nobody has pointed it out.
Is the sales tax in your area 7.5% by any chance?
$16 x (100/107.5)= $14.88
I donât see any gloves priced at 14.88 on their website at a quick check. I wonder if the store is trying to set a price that tallies to an even dollar amount and doesnât know the connotation. I only recently learned about those numbers being associated so I would like to believe a benign explanation. Maybe you could ask to talk to a store manager next time you see it an make sure they know to avoid that price point.
Found one item real quick, Husky Foam Kneeling pad. Same price of $14.88 for NYC, LA, Nebraska, and Delaware.
Thatâs not my tax rate, although itâs a good guess. It occurs across a number of store sin my area, although all in the same state. My theoretical benign explanation is its an inventory code for short term items around holidays. Iâll probably be there later today and see what I can find
