      What a great idea! The store has to write off a loss AND has to buy more of the product. The only winner is the company you try to sabotage because thanks to you they have a higher revenue and possibly profit.

        Depends on the store. Some big store like Walmart and even smaller ones like gas stations operate essentially on consignment for large sections of the store.

        They’ll have a Coca-Cola section on the shelves that’s reserved for Coke products and are even stocked by Coca-Cola employees, and Coke is paid when the store sells the product.

        There are also brands that pay for their products specifically to be separated from the competition. For instance, if you go to the chip aisle, and you’ll find Tostito’s queso with the Tostidos chips. That queso isn’t located with the other cheese dips on the condiment aisle, because they pay for the stores not to have their impulse-buy products located where a customer can easily look and see that the other brand is 1/2 the price.

          I’m aware of that. I even wanted to add an asterisk to my text but couldn’t remember that it was called consignment, so I left it out.

          In the end you don’t know for sure if a store operates on consignment, and in return if you sabotage the store or the company. And even if you know, destroying products, all the labour, resources and energy that went into it, just to fuck a company is still stupid and wasteful.

            Another great option is to buy and return products from a brand and say they’re broken. Most get sent back to the manufacturer at their expense or destroyed (especially if they’re a physically large product), and it damages their relationship with the retailer.

            If you want to be really evil, return for an exchange, then return THAT one for a refund, so you’ve removed 2 items from the shelves and hurt the manufacturer.

            That’s why lots of products have a warning not to take back to the store for an exchange/refund when you open the box, but to reach out to the manufacturer.

    It’s cool, I’ve never heard of most of them. It probably means that they’re the owners of all the stuff in my cupboards though.

    Private prison companies CoreCivic and GEO Group each donated $500,000, potentially positioning themselves to benefit from Trump’s planned immigration policies. GEO Group’s executive chairman, George Zoley, explicitly acknowledged these benefits, stating: “We believe that the private sector will play a critical role in assisting the government in carrying out its objectives…The GEO Group was built for this unique moment in our country’s history and the opportunities that it will bring.”

    Absolutely heinous
