While there are obvious perks to the state-regulated sales system,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there are a few let downs. Stores usually have sales in mid-summer and mid-winter anyway, to clear out old merchandise and make room for next season’s goods. But since sales are not allowed anytime except the state-approved times,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], merchandise is at full price the other nine months of the year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], making snagging that pair of perfect boots for half the price in October an impossibility.
Which method do you think works better: biannual mega-sales, or smaller discounts all year round? Quite frankly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we wish there was a way to have both. Mayor Bloomberg, are you listening?
Last month, while I was spending time in Paris, I noticed something special happening: Everything was going on sale. Every store I walked past had a sign in the window announcing exceptional soldes. But it was more than a pleasant coincidence; in case you didn’t know, France’s government regulates sales, allowing two six-week long markdowns a year, one beginning in June and the other in January.

This means that sales in Paris are major. By the end of the six week period,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], prices could be slashed by up to 80%,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a discount that you rarely see in New York. While shopping I got two dresses at fractions of their original costs, a delight–especially considering the favorable exchange rate.
