These aren't specials. Supermarkets just have regular pricing (such as above) and super inflated pricing. I walked down an isle yesterday and literally 90% of the products had yellow "SALE!" tickets. It's called sub-literate marketing and was initially thought to only be effective when directed at lower social classes. Our supermarket chains here in Oz don't discriminate however, and have taken it to a whole new level by treating the entire populace as though they're hill-tribe slack jaws. It's a repulsive practice but one we're seemingly lumbered with now.
