Most bike shops - and others too - always have them on sale if they are in stock.

It's not quite so common to advertise bikes on sale with a massive 5c off though.

Or perhaps it Is. These things come in cycles.

I might consider paying full price in they include a free bell and a plastic water bottle.

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

Since they are the 2019 model, and thus utterly obsolete, that will account for the price reduction...

That price for a 2019 model isn't bad.

Bicycle tyres (or tires if you must) are subject to inflation.

Here you go, Bob.
This photo is of my favorite, and nearest, department store in Bonavista.
I can attest that Riff's has had a daily sale since Tuesday, October 10, 2017, at least!

If there's 33⅓% off today, that only leaves 16 hours!
No doubt Chris knows all about Riff-Raff! (No, not the wrapper, whatever that is...)

Actually, by my reckoning, the pair of pants I want to buy at $17.37 will be FREE in 21 days time.
I don't know if I can wait that long.
My current pants are getting almost too dirty to wear.
Or as the French would say, sale. :groan:
Cheers

Are you sure that the 1/3 reduction is taken on the price? Maybe it's on the merchandise... Long pants today, knee-length tomorrow, shorts the next day, and then... oh my! :flee:

I saw a sign once that said "Wednesdays - clothes half off".

Presumably on Thursdays they have to put them on again.
