Typically I am a sucker for sales, promotions, and clearance deals. I will say until my last breath on Earth that most of the time you’re getting overcharged for something, whether it’s food or an electronic device. The “sale” price is often how much you’ll always pay anywhere else if you’re smart about when and where you shop. I’m not going to spend $100 on clothing that costs $40 at a local supercenter, especially if the quality differences are negligible. I calculated that I save over $100 a month on groceries because I insist on shopping at the discount grocery stores. The “nice” markets are wonderful for specialty meat and produce, however the rest of the items in the store are marked up by as much as 40%. Why waste money on things like aluminum foil and garbage bags when the same quality is much cheaper anywhere else? However, I l gained the hard way once that some discount deals are not worth the hassle and pain. I needed a current central air conditioner and I saw this commercial on television from a local HVAC corporation. At first I was gleeful by the offer, however the rational side of my brain decided to research this air conditioner manufacturer to see if they make quality machines. The moment I put their name in the search bar, the first words to come up were “scam,” “malfunctions,” and “bad customer service.” When I looked further, I found customers who were burned by taking fortune of these 50% off deals. New HVAC corporations are swooned into offering these deals by these predatory manufacturer representatives. I think that plenty of these local HVAC companies are aware of the scam, however there are some that are not.
