Clothing and furniture are the most egregious in this regard.
So many stores with "everything 30% off!" signs out front that have been in the sun so long they're cracked and fading.
- btgeekboy 7y agoI’ve found Kohl’s to be a great example of this. If you happen to find something that isn’t 30, 40% off, just try again next week.
- sethammons 7y agoWas looking for this comment! I was at Kohl's with my wife and I saw the sticker price and was ready to leave, and she said, "oh, that's not the price you'll pay, everything has a discount." I don't like that game and I've not gone back.

- madcaptenor 7y agoI don't think my mother has ever paid full price at Macy's.
- vanniv 7y agoAt the stores that use paper pricetags still, before you buy anything expensive, just rifle through the other pieces of paper behind the pricetags. Sure, today it says "30% off". Behind, though, are pages for 50% off, 40% off, and 65% off Then you know it isn't really on sale now.
- gmartell 7y agoI have to admit the Kohl's 'sale price' thing totally worked on me. I bought a piece of luggage that was marked down from around $300 to around $150. I felt very good about having acquired such a fine item for half price. Later I wondered if I would have felt as good paying $150 without thinking it was 'worth' $300. Of course I would not have.
