three rows with a barbecue on the left and William Wallace in Braveheart on the right.

In the first row, captioned Wednesday, the barbecue is labelled "$899.99" and Wallace says "hold".

The second row, captioned Thursday, depicts the same.

In the third row, captioned Black Friday, the there is a label with ~~$1099.99~~ struck through with "$899.99" written underneath, and Wallace charges.

Low price Sale does not exist. It's a myth!

This year especially it feels, prices actually went up for Black Friday. They don't even care anymore.

there's a couple decent deals on basic laptops.. that aren't shit-tier specs, either. that's about all i've seen--but then, i haven't been "looking" either. rent keeps going up, can't afford anything so i don't even bother to look at ads and sales on things that aren't absolutely essential to simply exist.

i do plan on going to wm on friday.. but later in the afternoon--for a few groceries.

They care...for the money

It definitely does, I've already made out pretty good on a couple things but you have to know the actual price well in advance and shop outside of Amazon

Or you use a price comparison website that shows you the pricing history.
