I mean seriously, if it's on sale it's either defective in some way or old and degrading as a result of age. That beef? Yeah, it's either been sitting there too long or is chewier than your grandpa's old leather shoes. That half-priced "Smart TV"? Guess what, it doesn't support DLNA. Whoops, too bad you didn't notice til you got it home. Congrats on buying second-rate junk your whole life, sucker.

when buying food look at the price per ounce and not the actual price you will save a ton of money.

except it's really not... shoddy products will wear out or become obsolete faster, so you'll spend more in the long run

actually some times things are on sale bc the store has too much supply like if they overestimated demand or new product is coming in early

sometimes you can get good deals on things you want this way op!

you can actually get a good deal on loss leaders, but yeah, don't just blindly buy something you don't need because it's on sale.

A good tip is to check craigslist for people that are moving and initially put there stuff up for way to much but now they gotta go and can't take their poo poo with them.

i go to the grocery store late at evening so i get stuff that won't get stale until a couple of days later for -30% that i can deep freeze if necessary. in the small town i was born in the local store puts that stuff in a "almost past date food for your pets" compartment and once the shopkeeper's wife confessed to me that she regularly takes stuff from there for her family dinners as i was looking at a package of ground beef that was marked -50%

thrift/second hand stores are like part of our nordic-but-almost-eastern-european culture so buying used clothing and furniture is no big deal :shrug:
