After he'd cut it, shops like HMV would discount stuff at the counter, taking into account the new, lower rate. Now they - and everybody else - doesn't seem to bother. Am I missing something?
I think you'll find that they've now had time to re-price their stock, so the price you see IS the lower rate.
