As:
1) The malls are all empty of people.
2) Most stores are advertising sales of, "Take an additional 40% off."
3) Other stores advertise, "Up to 75% off."
4) Yet others have large signs saying, "Everything must go."
5) Unwanted gifts cards are being re-sold on the secondary markets for 75 cents
on the dollar.
6) When all of the above are combined, I usually wind up paying 15-20% of what
the item was selling for just two weeks ago.
