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.
edit: grammar
in slovenia we just passed a law that requires shops to state the price change of an item in the last 30 days :)
One of the benefits of being part of the EU :)
I think its a thing here in norway as well. Thats why they just increase the price in early october, just a month ahead of black week bullcrap. Have seen plenty of electronics "super discounted" to the same price they had in september/october

Big items I usually start watching a few months out. If I see a store or brand that pulls tthis garbage, I simply go elsewhere. If I can't find it on offer, I buy it regular price at the smaller retail store.
Also in Poland
In America we keep the same price but decrease the amount of product. #profit
Oh wow that's cool! I'm from Slovenia too and I didn't know that.
How did you figure out your citizenship then?
We have a comedian among us

I know nothing about your country, is it common to speak English and what's the native language?
It's quite common for people to speak English. The native language is Slovene. It's a really small country in central Europe (much larger than Liechtenstein tho).
Nice, very cool, thanks for informing me!
All of EU is adopting this practice to comply with the EU Price Indication Directive.
I love to see the eu fucking over companies
Brazil's consumers rights department listed itens prices so stores can't fake advertise them. Countries with regulations: ok, we can do Black Friday, but...
I like how for all the problems Brazil has, the consumer protection laws are consistently some of the best around.
That's a sample of all the good things it can have when corruption doesnt happen
