Bargain Fever is the book you need to survive the new world of shopping. Everything is on sale, all the time. Discounts aren’t the exception – they’re the norm, and everyone wants a steal, a deal, a hook-up or a way to cut costs.
Ten years ago, retailers sold just 15-20% of their inventory at some kind of promo price – today, that number is 40-45%. Put simply, sales of sales have more than doubled in a decade. Bargain Fever looks at the seismic changes in shopping over the last decade, and offers a survival guide full of tips to triumph in this new cut-price world.
- Are you one of the 25% of Americans who are genetically programmed to be bargain addicts, unable to resist the pull of a hormone nicknamed buyagra?
- What are the four magic words that will wrangle a discount out of virtually any sales assistant?
- Why isn’t it ever worth shopping the SALE rack at a department store?
- Are you carrying a superfake designer handbag without even knowing it?
- How does one woman earn a million dollars every year – simply by reselling coupons?
- Who runs America’s best sample sales – and why are some of them top secret?
- Why is much of the merchandise at any outlet mall not even worth browsing?
With Bargain Fever in your hand on the next trip to the supermarket or the mall or sitting in front of your computer, you’ll never need to pay full price for anything, ever again.
