But many of what people would call as the classy-shops also went on sale. Ironic how they define the word-SALE! My mom and I were strolling through town on the last day of the sale when we came across one particular shop that is best known for its line of clothing. On the window waswritten SALE in big and bold letters. So we decided to enter the so-called SALE shop. When we entered the shop in fact not so much of a surprise, we found clothes tha were still in prices ranging from 30 dollars to a shocking 90 dollars. I mean who buys clothes that can easily tear at the sleeve for 60 dollars! Maybe only the rich who draw their wealth at the expense and poverty of others.
Now when you wanna know the real definition of Sale go to New Zealand. I was watching the One News on Mai TV during christmas and I believe the name of the shopping mall was called K-Mart. Well, the price clothes and other materials were unbelievable. A 160 dollar party dress came down to shocking 30 dollars. Now that’s more like it! So why is it that businesses claim that they are sale when what they are really doing is ripping people off from their pockets. Jeepers talk about Misleading Advertising. Someone should report them to Consumer Council or PIB!
