Reply to comment by WhiplashMotorbreath in why do so many convenience stores in southeastern MA think it's ok to NOT PRICE ANYTHING in the store? by [deleted]

I've forced franchisees to sell the business by exposing all the corrupt practices they assume they can get away with.

Why would anyone spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a franchise if it's soooo hard to turn a profit that they have to price hide their standard 200% markup.

Like I said, you have no clue. Wholesale pricing depends on the volume of product you buy, that IS why supermarkets, box stores, amazon, and walmart have cheaper prices, than what a mini mart vendor pricing gets.

And why many minimart owners will go buy their stock at a supermarket when the items are on sale, As they can buy it from the supermarket for less than the wholesale vendor sells it to them. Meaning the Bottle of coke cost them more from the coke vendor than buying it on sale at a supermarket. Same with most of the items in a mini mart that you can also find at a bigger box store.

Again, you have no clue and are IGNORANT!!
