Even if shoppifting tripled it would be minuscule in the overall scheme of things. Groceries pay 2 dollars per dozen eggs to farmers and have to toss out them out every few days, wastage-wise it’s basically a blip

Ah, so considering the miniscule loss in the overall scheme of things, Walgreens locking up products in the stores is just to be annoying?

more that execs are looking for an excuse to tell their board of directors why sales are falling that doesnt include online ordering. the movement to E-Commerce is a double hit to stores because not only do they directly lose sales but when something is ordered from their stores (on e.g -doordash) they have to put people on packaging those goods- which they see no income from and makes the brick-and-mortar store less staffed.
