Infuriating to think that all these places can sell products with a 50% discount and still make money. The rest of the time how much are they raking in? But we are all scraping by and gotta do what we gotta do. Thanks for letting me vent.

    NY State resident here. IIRC, Kaufmann’s got in big trouble with the Attorney General years ago for “sale prices” that allegedly represented discounts from the “usual price”. The usual price was fictitious - the products had never sold for that. I believe it led to a consumer protection law that regulated truth in advertising for sale pricing.
