‘50 Cents Effects’

Do you remember the Golden Biscuit? It’s a simple biscuit with 9-pieces inside at a price of 1 dirham.

I took a piece from my little brother (he’s 23 years old), surprisingly, he shared with me the thing: the old version was containing 9 pieces at a 1-dirham cost, right now, they decreased the amount of pieces to 6 and kept the same price, and add half a dirham (50 cents) to the same old version (to increase sales).

So, mainly:
🍪 9-pieces = 1.5 dirham
🍪 6-pieces = 1 dirham

Me saying, why just we cannot have 3-pieces for 50 cents?

This old-fashioned pricing strategy works to frame the consumer behavior purchase in the selected options in the most ridiculous ways, but none of them works when the consumer decides to not go in this consumer companies' games. “We get it!” “Bill collectors keep comin when a nigga, fucked up, to get money, money” — 50 Cent.

A 50 cents may seem a neglected amount for a 6-piece of biscuits, however, in the global economy it’s an eye-ball. My father explained to me the following, that whenever we buy an item (here in Morocco), we pay 20% in taxes to the government, and — he continued: they will remove the entire 20% in some consumer goods to encourage people to buy more, but in reality, we pay it on all cases, in all items.

If you know, you know, but you can check the lyrics.
