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

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.

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!
