What a shocker that Black Friday is all a marketing scam.
Amazon are the worst for it. Instead of reducing the prices of their products, they will often just add the RRP next to the existing price and claim that it’s 35% off or whatever, even though they’ve actually only knocked about £5 off the price it was already.
Had this exact same thing happen to me for the first time recently on a product I was watching. I was confused at first because I’d been watching it for a while and thought maybe the new price hadn’t refreshed or something, because it was 0% off.

Amazon also secretly ran an algorithm called project Nessie that just straight up creates inflation.
The employee at Amazon who came up with this idea probably got a big fat bonus. To the detriment of everybody else.

Blowing up my phone every 2 hours with a “deal” is getting old real fast.
