Hi! I am looking for experts who can provide insights into misleading Black Friday deals. Here are my questions:
- How can a “was” price be misleading even if the product really was listed at that price at some point, and how can consumers distinguish genuine discounts from exaggerated savings?
- How much do misleading Black Friday discounts actually cost consumers, how widespread are these practices, and which products or pricing tactics deserve the most scrutiny?
- What three things should shoppers check before buying a Black Friday deal to verify its price history, determine whether the discount is genuine, and avoid misleading offers?
Deadline: Oct 20th, 2026 11:59 PM (May close early)
