You weren’t suppose to do any research on sale prices you dumb consumer! That’s not how capitalism works, jeez!

The 89 cents were probably on sale too. So the only thing you could say is that the sale is not as good as ten years ago.
Nytefyre@piefed.social 4 months ago
1.49 is honestly not a bad bargain either. But, this just highlights where sales have degraded to over the past five years.

Wait until you find out what Subway used to charge for a footlong sandwich.
SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 months ago
What do they charge now? Also, are their “foot"longs still 11”, or have they gotten even shorter?
ampersandrew@lemmy.world 4 months ago
It varies, but it’s something like $7.50 to $8. In any case, inflation is a thing. Theme Park was added to the Good Old Games program, which means GOG did real work on it, and it’s not egregious to charge a few extra dollars. Plus, sale percentages are variable; sometimes Dragon Age is 50% off, but right now it’s 60%; this sale might not be a given game’s deepest discount. Are they charging what you’re willing to pay? If I was in the market for Theme Park at $0.89, I’d probably still be in the market for it at $3.

Really? Wow, in my area it’s like $12.

Inflation, to me, is code word for “I’m going to be greedier”. So, I’m so sick of seeing that word ‘inflation’ being thrown around so much because it’s just excusing and justifying the greed.

Please try to stay on topic. Tell me more about Subway sandwiches.

Right? It’s till cheaper than a coffee. I’d be pissed if it were $15
