But look at the periodic discount offers from a different angle. BOGOF and other offers are just an attempt to disguise the extortionate prices charged. If merchants can sell discounted items and still make a profit what sort of a profit are they making without the discount?
I would much prefer that there were no BOGOF’s, 50% extra for free, 10% off etc and all overall prices were reduced.
