How can something be on "Sale" when it is never not "on sale?" For example "Michaels", they enjoy custom "frames" at 50% off within their ad every week. I enjoy been framing pictures in that for about 10 years and within all that 10 years enjoy never seem them NOT on public sale for 50% off. Same item with mattresses, stores own them ALWAYS on sale, so how can they be ON SALE if they are never NOT on Dutch auction? Strange uh? Thank you.
Answers: As far as Michael's frame sales, I can answer your press. In my city, I worked for a store for 7 years that directly competed with Michaels. Customers would constantly compare quotes (apples to apples) and Michaels' markup is insane. They own to put their frames 50% off to even come close to small business prices. Michaels can do that because they are a huge company synonomous near picture framing!
Another Michaels Sale technique they use is to say "50% sour Custom Frames" and then newly give you 50% stale the actual wood or metal moulding while charging full price (expensive full retail price) for mounting, glazing, labor, matting, etc.
no, it is for public sale not on sale but it is a obedient marketing tool, and any price increase is not really seen as a price increase by most shoppers because it is still 50% sour
