Just-Reduced Clearance Same Price As Last Time

This is the 3rd time this item has been in the JRC @ the same price. Isn't that false advertising or something?

H199742 $16.68

I'm just amazed, ha, ha, that it's more than $3 off. The $7 or so it is off is the same $7 they're charging for shipping. Everything about their clearance policies are odd to me. Rarely a good deal, once in a blue moon something is half off. I've given up stalking items for clearance. The time it takes had never been worth the savings.

<h5>How is it false advertising? There is no legal definition for "just reduced," and it could refer to something reduced five seconds ago or five months ago.</h5>

The heading says "take advantage of the latest markdowns". So that indicates no other markdowns have been made since the ones listed. I wonder how a jury or judge would interpret the advertising. It is definitely untrue, thus a lie. I don't know how the "truth in advertising" laws work, but you have to admit this is definitely false advertising.
