Let's take the opposite of that, then -- bad deals. People want to talk
about bad deals too. Rip-offs and disgusting pricing practices.
So what are all the things that people want to talk about in terms of the
larger picture of "value shopping"?
(a) good deals: sales, promotions, coupon offers
(b) bad deals: warnings to others (z.B., "FAOS is overpriced")
and occasionally
(c) so-so deals -- nothing really special in terms of price, but
something special in terms of availability -- like some old set
reappearing somewhere
Basically, anything out of the ordinary, right?
