about recently Transformers sales

I didn't recall last year had these many crazy half price sale or BoGo around these time last year? When there is BoGo in Toysrus at the Sep, I felt something different this year and Christmas comes so early at that time. Could it be because of the price battle around different retail stores this year?One sales leads to another store to have more discount to push on the shelf?

Do we expect there will be more sales before Christmas ? My pocket is empty now,and should get another job if there is more discount opportunities available.

------


I wish my pocket could say "ALRIGHT" to me. ^^"
I don't know if they will be huge sale on December or close to Christmas, because those retail stores know people will buy Christmas Gift even if there is no BOGO sales. I assumed the Walmart Deluxe "rollback" could the last and the best discount sale for this year. Well, I hope not. LOL.

I would be given the slow Retail sales this year, we should see more BOGO or further discounts at Wal-mart and TRU.

Re: about recently Transformers sales

we're seeing all these sales because of the global financial crisis. retailers are afraid that people won't be spending as much money as before so they lower prices.

Re: about recently Transformers sales

TRU ussually has large X-Mas sales before December every year. I remember getting a couple Classics last year for $7.50 each or so.

And Walmart rolled back the Voyager prices last year as well, but the deluxe rollback is a new thing.

How about Ultra and Vog class and even leader class to have 1/2 price then ? This could push more sales and quicker return in the short run.

Re: about recently Transformers sales

I wouldn't be surprised to see lots of sales on everything given the "economic climate" right now.

So new in fact, that Walmart doesn't even know about it.

Re: about recently Transformers sales

Last time I checked The Walmart flyer didn't even bother to include the Deluxe "rollback" on it. Hence, I wonder this might not be a rollback but a very short term,& temporate strategy and could be changed back in day to day operation?

Unfortunately that's actually what a rollback is.
