minus-squareisleepinahammock@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·21 days agoWhy doesn’t your grocery store charge $20 for a gallon of milk then if they can just raise prices as much as they want? Have you never even heard of supply and demand?
minus-squaremissingno@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·21 days agoLet me spell this out for you. Discount on self-checkout passes.
