    I don’t pay attention to anything that’s not the actual price of the item at the moment. Sometimes the 2+1 for free deals are nice if it’s some consumable like socks which is something I will always need, but I noticed that stores where I live don’t do this anymore (I guess when I put a dozen pairs of socks in my cart, manager realized that was a bad idea because for that one time, it was actually slightly cheaper) except for garbage like chips and shitty sodas, and 3rd one isn’t even free, you will pay more than 50% of its price for sure…

      I pay attention to the normal price that’s displayed most of the time while shopping so I know when it changes. Like around Black Friday when shit that was $3 goes up to $5 and the label says it was reduced from $10 so I know damn good and well it’s bullshit.

      Also, sidenote: If you consider socks a consumable item, consider spending more on better quality socks.

        Socks are consumable because they grind on your legs and holes start appearing in less than a month unless all you do is put them on and sit at home on couch.
