Are the sales in Doha for real

I had been to a shop which started their sale today looking for sertain things. But one of the pricings on the item that I saw left me surprised.
At the front of the item, the actual cost and the sale price was displayed. But behind the item was the old price which was at least 25 rials less than the price displayed as the original price.
The sale price difference was 43 rials but looking at the exact price the differnce would just come to 18 rials!!!

What can we as consumer do regarding this?

popular items specially in consumer electronics are prime example of fast moving

I just took the snap of the price stuck on the back of the item.
