"Truth In Advertising" taken to the next level.

Isn't that just any Friday in Swansea?

everything you deserve when buying from Temu

That right there is Black Friday in a nutshell ⬆️

People on black Friday are crazy. If they didn't like the price someone might have taken their anger on it or some employee. I'm ok with it being broken on black Friday.

This is what Black Friday looks like everywhere

You needed to buy the storewide to get 40% off

Just block them. Problem solved

that is really pathetic behaviour.

Fake

This is why I don’t even bother with Black Friday. If companies are going to make up holidays just to get us to buy things than I’d rather not participate 😂

Omg a whole 1 cent! Worth camping outside the store overnight for!

LMFAO someone’s marketing team is getting in trouble.

These are different colors ...

Love it!!!! These unrealistic expectations of ostrich bodies are getting out of control.

Since when does UPS use an open trailer pulled by an off road cart? This must be a private delivery inside a gated community or something. Real UPS drivers use a UPS branded truck/vehicle, unless it is UPS fulfillment which is done by contract employees, aka not UPS drivers

In Montreal UPS doesn't even bother to try to deliver. They straight up stop in front of your building, send an update for the pkg info, then drive away and you have to travel 40 minutes away to pick up your stuff. If I see something I ordered will be shipped UPS I try to cancel it

Only Amazon snap US Post Office delivers Amazon packages not UPS.

Not an ups fault. Amazon was always doing a VERY bad job with packing parcels.

Sever safety issue? Edit: OH “severe safety issue” 😂 I was imagining knives cutting ropes, it’s been a long day.

Ah yes, the “sense of urgency” sales tactic.

That car is absolutely DESTROYED. I hope the driver/passengers were ok. How did it even get in there 😂 I guess through the window hole but it must have rolled or something.

If I were going to do Black Friday, I'd need this to survive.

This cuts deep.

Isn’t the point of Black Friday to illuminate those in our society that think a quarter of something is more than 1/3???? It would track they wouldn’t have the cognitive abilities to actually read the tag then deduce its meaning.

Buffalo Vegan Cloud sounds like an indie band name

That is Hex Clad and ever since Ramsey started as their spokes person they have gone up in price. I had one before him, and they are absolutely awesome. But to answer your question some sets are more then twice that.

And it'll crack after just a few uses. I find it kind of funny that there are two kinds of pyrex. Lowercase pyrex is produced in the US and complete c**p, uppercase PYREX is made in France and still really good and made of borosilicate glass. I even think the US version went out of business this year.

Screw Banana Republic. Once when I was 19 I had an interview at one of their stores. It was a dual interview with one other interviewee. They gave us both 10 mins to go around the store and design an outfit from whatever we could find. The other person’s outfit was cooler so they hired him instead of me 😠 and I have never let it go lmao, I can’t fashion under pressure apparently

.51 cheaper. Could be worse.

My phone has more gigaboops than that.

I've never seen a bicycle delivered fully assembled before

I’m a marketer by trade, and my last job wanted me to send out mass emails like this several times a week. I gently talked them down to once or twice a month 😂 nobody wants this many emails from a store.

Glass door + packages, what could possibly go wrong?

OFF TOPIC: I had a severely clogged drain and thought to give this a try. One only needs to use 1/2 cup. Most drain cleaners have you use the entire bottle. THIS CLEANED AND UNCLOGGED the drain so well that it scared me.

Oooh I’ve never seen a washing machine opened up 😮

It seems like it is targeting a very specific part of consumers.

Maybe this photo is from a store doing a promotion in the springtime and calling it “spring Black Friday?”

Wow! Ten whole cents!!!

This is about as honest & actual a discount on Black Friday as I’ve ever seen. Sure, the big box is giving 30% off, but they also marked it up by 40% a month or so earlier, making the great deal even more expensive than the 3% discounted price. That’s 100% how Black Friday works.

We’ve a retail end to our resort and use a very popular software suite to manage it. There’s an option to increase prices across the board based on sales data for each & every item, solely to be able to discount the prices for promo or a “huge sale” which garners original or higher earnings per piece/item. Every retail company does this. It’s the grocery store membership scheme. It works so incredibly well. One example: we sell branded beach towel for $79. In fall/winter (tropical warm local high season) it raises the price to $129. We do two (sometimes 3) marketed sales mid-Oct thru Feb and reduce the price to $99 for a “very limited time” with “sells out quickly” signage. We move ~300% more during this season & double it during the sales. It’s “bargain” psychology.

Meanwhile, your dog made your new slippers look a little chewy.

If they round pennies up, you are still paying the same.

There has got to be some sort of consumer protection where the op lives. Surely?

I disagree..what's annoying is seeing X-mas trees up alongside Halloween stuff.

I don't get it. This is normal, year round marketing

Perhaps this is one of the reasons that Shopko no longer exists.

Meh. I’m not sure how Petsmart treats its animals (hopefully well but since it’s a large chain pet store I’m not confident) but having a discounted price during a major shopping event so more pets can find a home isn’t the worst thing in the world. (Also ps, when possible, adopt don’t shop! 😊)

The only unbelievable thing here is that there are still Toys R Us stores left in the world.

Did he punch it while the VR headset was on or something? 😂
