The Strawberry Conundrum

June 30, 2009, 11:45 PM

If strawberries are always half price are they every half price?

Well, I don't know what it's like in the USA, but in UK it does seem that winter and summer strawberries are advertised as "Half Price" or in "Buy one get one free" offers.

Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
he said, 'Don't count calories.'

Re: The Strawberry Conundrum

I can't say, living in California I'm really spoiled for produce. Little farmers markets are everywhere, and cheap. No need for gimmicky sales, just a small booth near a road.

There is a strong over pricing of pomegranates though. Also lies + marketing = fake demand.
