Last week one of my followers commented about the “sale” price of Bick’s pickles and I wanted to take a moment to address it. Walmart – and Loblaws – often advertise products that are the regular price. It is very sneaky of them because you think that you’re getting a deal but you really aren’t. Sneaky buggers!
Remember a couple of weeks ago that I pointed out that Walmart were advertising green onions for a supposed sale price of sixty-seven cents when their normal price was fifty-seven cents? This week the flyer is advertising them for fifty-seven cents AND Walmart says that that’s their regular price! Which is it Walmart?! See, sneaky buggers!
