> Is your grocery store colluding with CocaCola to display their products right at the front of the store while putting healthy items like milk far away!!??
Of course they are.
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic, but Coca Cola exists precisely because of those sorts of distribution and product placement deals.
Grocery stores are paid a ton of money to place products in favorable spots on the shelves and end caps. That and the consumer surveillance loyalty cards are a huge fraction of their profits.
(I’d ban both practices if I were supreme dictator. Sadly, I am not.)
