However, that philosophy can only work if people are willing to submit to their profiteering methods. It is sad that when the tables are turned, it's because the consumer's bank accounts have been exhausted. And in the end, the retailers fail also because they continually forecast their methods to work again and again. We are all at fault for allowing greed to rule our purchase decisions and not necessity. The retailers are in it to make the most money they can, any way they can.

It is sad that when the tables are turned, it’s because the consumer’s bank accounts have been exhausted. And in the end, the retailers fail also because they continually forecast their methods to work again and again.

We are all at fault for allowing greed to rule our purchase decisions and not necessity.

It always seems like businesses only give great deals if there is no other choice. How about everyone play fair? Maybe if all these businesses weren't so greedy from the beginning, things wouldn't be so bad now. You see it everywhere.. gas prices, food, vehicles, etc. Of course I don't think it's all their fault. If we didn't feel like we had to have anything our hearts desired at right that very second, we wouldn't be just as bad off as the businesses.
