What's the meaning of "offering upgrades like there was no tomorrow"? On the ground floor of the building, where Pliskin’s grocery store had been, there was a dollar store, and next to it, instead of the shoe repair guy there was a cell phone outlet offering upgrades like there was no tomorrow. What's the meaning of "offering upgrades like there was no tomorrow"? Thanks!

"like there was no tomorrow" is an expression which means doing as much as you can in as short a time as possible, sometimes recklessly and carelessly. If the world were to literally end tomorrow, you would want to do as much as you can today. A store "offering upgrades like there there is no tomorrow" means they want to upgrade as many phones as they can very quickly. There are probably really good deals - the idea is to get a lot of quick sales.

在大楼的一层,曾经是Pliskin的杂货店的地方,开了一家一元店,紧挨着它的,不是那位修鞋匠,而是一家手机零售店,人们疯狂的抢购新机,好像明天就是世界末日了一般。
