This is functionally the same thing as a 2-for-1 sale. Not that I really know what such sales are supposed to accomplish, but you see them frequently enough that there must be some reasoning behind it. Maybe getting a free second thing makes you more likely to buy the first one than getting it for half price? Maybe it lets you set the minimum price for "some X" higher than you'd normally be able to?
I really don't know. It may be weird, but this sort of pricing definitely isn't rare.
- oneeyedpigeon 11y agoIn the UK, my experience is that I rarely notice these deals, but when I get to the counter with a single item, the person behind the counter points out the deal. I then have to make a decision of whether to go back hunting through the store for the second item, or forgo the saving. I almost always do the former, which is awkward if there's a queue of people behind me.
