When shopping, are you aware of “misleading, inaccurate or deceptive marketing”?
Are you sick and tired of seeing a “suggested price” of $129 followed by a “sale” price of $79 knowing that the “suggested price” is a price that shoppers will never pay? or items put “on sale” that were marked up artificially then reduced with final prices higher than earlier prices? Some stores that have created a false impression that they’re offering a price reduction when they’re not have been big retail chains JC Penney, KOHL’s and Jos. A. Bank. Have you seen this practice at some high-market kitchenware stores? Although illegal, FTC enforcement of “fake prices” at the state level is unfortunately “spotty.” Bottom line: do your comparison shopping, and don’t just assume that something is a deal just because the retailer says so.
