Danno’s video today was very informative. He hit on an issue that we are all experiencing in stores. Rising prices and anger. Anger over rising prices is rising and rightfully so. I am with you on that fully. Here’s a couple of things to remember.
1. Don’t Blame Floor Staff. What does that mean? Quite simple. The staff on the grocrey store floor doesn’t set the prices. They just put tags up. Or stock the shelves. That’s it.
2. Politicians are owned by corporations. This isn’t something I go into here. But it’s the truth. These corporate owners (like Progresso) have spent billions to get politicians they own. This way they can jack up the prices anytime they want and blame will be deflected away from them by the politicians.
With that said, try to remember that store floor staff are paying the same prices we do if they buy name brand items. Kroger offeres a 10% employee discount and fuel points when the employees buy Kroger brand items. But if they buy Tyson air fried chicken, they pay what Tyson wants.
