    no the prices are always artificially high so when there's a "sale" there just back to the what should be normal price..

    This is a wind up right? Just to blow wind up our heinies? I guess just another whine about sales ... that's taken the wind out of their sales ...

    I don't know about "normal price" quite often their sale prices go low, but you're right in that they keep them at the high RRP prices till sale time, & they're also hoping while you're in for the sale item you'll be attracted to a full price item at the same time.
    Funny thing is tho (& alot of people haven't noticed this yet) is while Briscoes is famous for it & possibly started it, almost all major retail nowadays has constant "sales"... Just take a look at your junk mail

    yeah she must be about 60 now, but apparently widely considered to be the hottest thing on tv in the over 60s age group.

    What would happen if her & Vince Martin the Bro'repairs guy got together?
