Infuriating to think that all these places can sell products with a 50% discount and still make money. The rest of the time how much are they raking in? But we are all scraping by and gotta do what we gotta do. Thanks for letting me vent.

My tinfoil hat theory is stores don’t have the staff to run the classic large Black Friday exclusive sales so they’ve done weeklong deals.
Reality is covid changed the way they did it, that and many stores closing on Thanksgiving. Then they realized they could still make a similar amount of money with less risk to people and property. And with digital retail becoming more popular they’ll lose less product to theft and damages if you ship from a warehouse or have a personal shopper get it for you and bring it to your car instead of going into an overcrowded store.
Employees are less stressed, everyone is safer, and sales numbers are the same or better.
