Supermarket and pharmacy “half-price” deals seem misleading.

I’ve noticed that many items advertised at “half price” are not accurate. For instance, something priced at $4 is often shown as half-price, yet it sells for $2.50 instead. That’s a 14% discrepancy, and it’s happening all over. These companies are only contributing to the rising cost of living.

One thought on “Supermarket and chemist “half” prices”

  1. It’s really frustrating to see discrepancies like that, especially when you’re trying to budget during tough times. It feels misleading when a sale price is advertised as “half” but doesn’t reflect the actual discount. This tactic can definitely contribute to consumer mistrust and makes it even harder for people to cope with rising costs. It might be worth bringing this to the attention of consumer protection agencies or sharing your experiences on social media to raise awareness. We deserve transparency when it comes to pricing!
