Honestly this one has been eating at me since Thursday. At my sister's table in Naperville, my brother in law kept going on about how the outlet mall 40 minutes away runs a 70% off sale every single weekend, like it's a law of nature, and half the family nodded along. Tbh I started writing down the signs I saw there whenever we drove past, just out of spite, and over 2 years I logged 31 visits. The biggest discount I ever saw was 40% off, and 19 of those trips had no sale sign at all, just normal prices. What got me is that his whole take came from one Black Friday in 2019 where he got a coat for cheap and now it's just a fact in his head. Ngl I get why people do this, one good trip becomes a rule for life, but it's wild how fast a single story turns into something everyone repeats. Has anyone else kept a dumb little log like this just to prove a relative wrong, or am I the weird one here?
