> Heh. That is Wal-Mart's primary advertising strategy here. Their slogan is something like "Prices are Falling Again" and they have commercials in which you see prices being lowered... of course, these prices aren't attached to any particular products. They've been doing this for a number of years, and Wal-Mart is one of the leading retail chains, so it must be effective. Sigh.

I think they do that wherever they exist, and possibly elsewhere. I have never seen a Wal-Mart anywhere in Germany, (probably they only exist in larger towns yet) but they have TV ads here that follow the exact same principle.
