    the sad thing is that's how they make money. and it's really really sad when people are barely paying their bills and have to scrape everything just to have a meal on the table.

    When my store closed down the head of the company hired a Liquidation Company to run the final thing. All of us employees for our final work session was sent through the store changing all prices. If an item was $1 we changed it to $2.50! All prices went up, way up for their everything 30% off start of sale! We had to agree to keep our mouths shut to get our severance package but until the final 24 hours no one was getting money off!

    That's what I've heard. The employees and company itself have nothing to do with it, just the liquidation companies out to make as much as they can.

    I'm wondering if it is even worth it to go look on the final day just to see if they've lowered anything.

    I went to check out a local grocery store, Cub foods, that is going out of business. I go through a lot of diet sodas and thought I could stock up cheaply. Yeah right, a 12 pack was marked $6.00! oh and then 25% off of that was the deal. At my normal Grocery store I can get a 24 pack for less than that and if I hit the right sale I can get 4 - 5 12 packs for 10 or 11 dollars. The only deal I actually got was the milk, it "expired" in 4 days and was marked down to 50 cents a gallon. My kids go through about a gallon a day so I bought 6 gallons and saved a fortune.
