They have been doing this ever since I can remember. I recall that they allegedly tried to convince the shopper that it is ‘50%’ or ‘80%’ off. A few times I think it was ‘90% off’. Kudos to Quebec for having the courage to investigate and prosecute. I don’t think it will change much, however. Once, I had a clerk tell me ‘Don’t buy it now, tomorrow it will be 50% off’. He showed me the schedule of ‘price reductions’ for it for the next 12 months. If I waited eight weeks, it would be 75% off.
Interesting to see this when I just posted about Memory Express doing the same thing last week. I don’t think MemEx does business in QC but could be wrong about that. Would love for this shit to be investigated and punished across all areas of the market.
Fuuuuck. You had to ruin memory express for me? Where else do I go now that isn’t some shitty best buy for PC hardware…
And I don’t mean online retailer either. Sometimes I really need same day shit and to go in store.
