January 2, 2008 at 8:39 PM #128158stockstradrParticipantI see someone started this thread on recent xmas season mega sales that were seen in retail stores.
My wife and I did notice MANY retailers staged massive sales, obviously trying to lure in the budget-tightening shoppers (who seem to be sensing a recession is coming)
On Black Friday (after Thanksgiving) in the Bay Area, I saw retail sales discounting greater than anything I’ve seen for at least ten years.
My wife and I spent $3,000 in five days and we got at least $15,000 of stuff in terms of normal retail prices. It was UNREAL. We got most our stuff at 75% (and more) discounted off retail prices.
I bought $45 dress shirts for $8/each
I bought $85 pleated dress slacks for $15/each
$300 leather jackets were going for $30
I bought $35 cotton polos for $8/each
$300 KitchenAid mixers for $85We felt some of the prices matched what we used to pay for knock-offs at Beijing’s Silk Street market before it was closed down.
However, I should note that we got those best deals only during the first six hours of Black Friday. We were at the mall at 6 AM. (We stacked multiple discounts for most purchases to get those prices.)

Obviously, you haven't visited beijing recently. I can fully attest that silk street market is alive and kicking, with a plethora of "triple A" fake designer bags and other crap.
