Supermarket sales dates.

I don't know when this started happening, but this is annoying. Supermarket sales where I live have weekly circulars that tells you what is on discount at the store. It used to be every sunday when this would start, but now all of them have been changed to friday. I don't know why or what reason they could have for doing that, but I'm so used to new sales starting sundays, not fridays.:angry:

But if the sales start on friday, they will be available on sunday as well...
What is the problem tho? :unsure:
 
Why would you try to increase business during a period where most others are free to come visit?
Seems like a silly idea to me.

That said the two reasons to have a sale are to increase traffic or get rid of stock. If they shifted from the latter to the former then it might say something about the health of their business.
 
Here they start every Thursday. Do you know what we get the same day? Paychecks from work.
This strategy works very well for making people buy.
