Post a SALE sign in a store
window and soon the store is
crowded with shoppers. Many
consumers have trouble resisting
an item which appears to be selling
at a reduced price.
When is a sale a sale? There are
two criteria. Firstly there must be a
significant reduction from the
everyday price of the item, and
secondly that lower price must be
available for a limited period of
time.
Some items are listed at the
manufacturer’s suggested retail
price (or list price) but regularly
sell for a lesser price. That lesser
price is the regular price or the
discount price but is not a sale
price. If that regular price drops for
a few days up to 30 days that new
price is a sale price.
If an advertisement lists an
appliance for $40 and says compar
ableprice, $75, the consumer must
carefully examine the selection of
appliances. It will be necessary to
compare items and be knowledge
ale of the products and prices.
There are traditional sales which
lower prices on certain products at
particular times of year. Some
items you could expect to be at
reduced prices during May include
air conditioners, bedding, outdoor
furniture, hand appliances and
televisions. In June, look for
outdoor furniture, garden sup
plies, power tools, storm windows
and doors.
There is no substitute for being a
good consumer. Remember a
bargain is a bargain only if you
need the item and can afford it.
