In fact, we have a quota for how much in discounts we’re supposed to give every month (but not for sales, although we have goals for that). It’s weird. As a specialist, I can mark down just about anything up to $50 off as long as it’s not more than 25% of the total price.
For appliance sales, that typically amounts to the cost of our haul-away service for an old appliance or the vent kit and plug for a dryer.
Family discount…do single people often buy appliances? And why would single people be better off than families for there to be a need for a family discount? Lol
the family discount is often bestowed secretly ;)
“family discount” as in “oh look the box has a tiny ding in it - guess this damaged stock and therefore I had better ring this up at cost plus”?

That’s interesting - thanks for explaining. I guess this is baked in, and designed so people feel like they are getting a great deal?

“Family” as in members of the lgbtq+ family, not just people who have a family.
I give plenty of discounts to other people, too.
… people who are single generally still have family members of one sort or another. Humans are generally not reproducing through parthenogenosis.
