Johnson City, Tenn. -- "They really just need to make sure that they don't feel pressured into buying something just because they're being told they're getting a bargain" says D. Christopher Garrett of the Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance. He warns consumers that they owe it to themselves to do their homework and really know what they're getting into when they go after liquidation sales.
Circuit City just announced the liquidation of its stores last week, introducing major sales, proclaiming "everything must go." Stephanie Haire came to Johnson City from Greeneville for the prospect of great deals. She was less than thrilled with the spread, and took her business elsewhere.
One employee of Circuit City said he and the other employees have sixty days left to work, meaning there are sixty days left of sales. Now, products are only ten, twenty, and thirty percent off. Eventually, the store will cut costs until all merchandise is gone.
No matter the bargain slogan, shoppers should continue to compare prices to get the best deal for them.
