I normally only steal from chain grocery stores, but I'll make an exception for his store if I'm ever in the area

I would keep an eye on this asshole. However, this seems like the first "crazy 8" sale.

If I am remembering right, .88 is a manager sale.

Have seen this one here in New Zealand too.

Was a company selling house insulation for $14.88/m², and the owner was a similarly reprehensible individual:

$14.88 is a very suspicious price for meat and a 'crazy 88 cent sale' is basically confirmation.

If it isn't ibtentional then someone setting prices needs to learn how to avoid dogwhistles. But I'm just going to assume the worst because it usually is.

That guy is a Nazi

[–] stinerman@midwest.social 7 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

The $14.88 sale is free advertising. Plus the guy can say it's just the woke trying to cancel him when he gets his Fox News interview.

I mean to some extent maybe, but what is the alternative? Not call a Nazi out for being a Nazi?

I already don't shop there and I tell people not to shop there. Bigger question to me is why is a subreddit that is still cosplaying as progressive, allowing ads for a Nazi? Or anywhere else. That's the bigger fish. Pressure people to stop allowing Nazis to advertise.

Can anyone bring me into the loop? I don’t know any of the significance here.
