price reductions can also mean they get better deals from their suppliers!
Also price reductions are there to encourage sales. In fact look around at
the high-street in general today and see all the reductions taking place.
Actually there was something on the radio this morning saying that the
clothing retailers are down 3.5% (from whatever it was) and it is the lowest
they've been for over 30 years.

Also to be branded as a "sale" doesn't the goods need to be sold at a
certain price for a minimum period of time at that certain price?

Still, let's not "poo poo" Boo for offering a discount! Hey, a good deal is
always worth exploring!
