I own a very new, very small business selling underboob sweat protectors.

This morning I posted an offer on my page. It wasn’t a big offer but it was a saving. We’re talking a £1 saving here. Trust me, that’s important information.

I get a comment on my offer: “if you can afford to post offers like that, why don’t you just drop your prices? 🙄”

I’m horrified. I don’t understand what the motivation was behind it… I don’t think my prices are unreasonable at all and I’m not sure why someone would say that?

    I worked in retail, how many times did I hear “no price in the computer? So then it’s free?” “Almost closing time? It should be half price” Customers can really act like idiots, you don’t have to respond when they are acting like that

      Those are just lame jokes that have been around since cash registers were invented. Not everything is meant to be taken so literally.

      “No price in the computer…” Is exclusively said by adults over +70 years old 😆
