And then when you need a AC/Heat guy and you call the ones you’ve used for the last 6 years at 8am and by 10:30am they’re in your driveway. Loyalty pays off.
I am one of those consumers who will not just sit there and wonder " why do they get a better deal".
Every time I see a better deal on a phone plan with my carrier are call up and complain and threaten to leave them and quoting total bullshit like in Ohio you can not allow a better deal than your members who have already signed up. Start using words like " consumer protection laws" and how it is illegal to prevent a company from enforcing a contract when you have other members on better contracts.
It works every time.
It does not even take that much time. A sense of outrage and keeping calm but letting them know I have lots of free time to spend giving my opinions on your business practices to people looking for phones.
Also.
Former owner discounts from dealers? Puleeease I worked at dealerships. Just ask. All those discounts are normally shit they can not move. You want a purple truck with a light package but no hitch? Don't worry it still out there and they will give you the same deal on shit bolted to the sales floor.
And my favorite money saving adventure. Started using this when our dispensary system went from the medical side of the government to the consumer side of the market.
In Ohio it is against the law to increase your base price of a product in order to decrease the effectiveness of a percentage discount.
And a lot of the states have the same law.
If you sold something within 30 days at a retail price and within 30 days your raise the retail price and give a discount that is illegal. There is a caveat for this to work.
If it is the same product but is a new delivery of product with a higher cost it is legal to do so. This is difficult to find out but I have seen dispensary lists with 2 prices indicating that they are now following this rule. You will have a Klutch brand orange 43 at say 120 an half and a discount and the same product with a different THC amount and a different price indicating a new packaged harvest.
Dispos where not following the law on a lot of things. Some were giving " happy bucks " that accumulate in your account and we're letting us use these " happy bucks ' for discounting weed and that is illegal.
Hey I did not say shit.........
