That's how store closings work under bankruptcy.
One week at 20%.
Then one week at 30%.
40%.
etc.
Essentially they want to sell each item at the highest price it will sell at, somewhat like a stretched-out reverse auction.
And the process works; by the time they get to the discounts that would cause riots there is nothing worthwhile left.
With Borders, I guess that'll be the self-help books.
