Y’all are also smart enough to know and prohibit retailers from boosting prices just before discounting them to trick consumers into thinking they’re getting a huge deal when they’re actually paying average, or above average cost for the product.
Comment on Black Friday not the cheapest time to shop, says consumer group

If Americans are complaining about the discounts on black Friday, what shall we (Europeans) say about it. Our discounts are at best lukewarm.

Does Europe have any laws about branding cheaper or items with less features, identically to existing more expensive products and selling them for less?
If not, they should, but then Temu would get fucked I assume.

What discounts? There are a ton of items I’ve been watching that are “on sale” but more than they were a month ago.

In my place, discounts are 90% off but they increase MSRP before the discount.
So end result… same price before discount.
