minus-squaredylanmorgan@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down1·1 year agoMy guess is that Amazon fresh makes its prices even more absurdly low to get more people buying.
minus-squareAusatKeyboardPremi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoI can rationalise holding off on buying a new phone or furniture until a sale. But for groceries? One either needs groceries or they do not. Perhaps, there are some categories of groceries that one may not buy unless there is a good occasion but might buy them if there is a good deal on it? Or maybe, one may buy the pricier variety like “organic” groceries during such sales?
