申し訳ございませんが、割引シールを貼る時間は決まっておりませんので、お答えいたしかねます。
もうしわけございませんが、わりびきしーるをはるじかんはきまっておりませんので、おこたえいたしかねます。
I apologize, but we do not have a set time for when we put on discount stickers, so I am unable to provide an answer.
Gesture & etiquette
Give a slight bow and maintain a polite, apologetic facial expression.
Do not press the staff for a specific time or complain about their policy as it is considered rude behavior in a Japanese department store.
