Signification
A 50% discount on an item.
Contexte culturel
In places like the 'Dezerter Bazaar', asking for 'half price' is a standard opening gambit. It's not seen as rude, but as the start of a social game. Tbilisi malls now heavily use 'ნახევარი ფასი' in their marketing, often keeping the English '50% OFF' alongside the Georgian text. If a Georgian friend sells you something, they might offer it at 'half price' as a gesture of friendship, even if they lose money. For the older generation, 'half price' evokes memories of state-controlled prices where discounts were rare and highly valued.
Look for the Red
In Georgia, 'ნახევარი ფასი' is almost always written in red or white on a red background.
Don't be too aggressive
In modern supermarkets, don't ask for half price if there's no sign. It's only for bazaars or official sales.
