I am lucky to live in a country where there are always at least 3 supermarkets in walking distance so they are desperately competing with each-other.

There are also 3 fast food joints within walking distance of a Wendy's or this BBQ joint in San Diego. "Competition exists" doesn't seem to be a be all end all driver for the pricing.
