Biggest Grocery Store Markups: The Worst Deals in the Aisles {WalletPop}
Feb 20th 2011 7:45PM Some of what is reported in here is ridicuous. The subscription price of a magazine has nothing to do with what that magazine costs a store. Stores are lucky to get 20% markup on retail on magazines. Cerealare generally sold below 20% . Kellogs Corn Flakes are sold at below cost in our market region, know as a loss leader. Miracle Whip, even with help with deals from Kraft is sold almost $1 under cost. The person who wrote this article either didn't do much research, margins with data that reflect a cost in one enviroment, bit not at the point of where it was sold., or is an idiot who can't do math. Likely just an idiot.

Wal-Mart now selling its own milk -- without added hormones {BloggingStocks}
Mar 25th 2008 4:01PM The fact is there is no way to prove there are no hormones added into any milk, as the very same hormone is naturally occuring in milk. SO the people who buy and sell defective product from China, we are going to trust them on this. The temptation by them and their suppliers to sell this type of milk, and make the extra money that goes along with it ought to be frightening to the very people for which this is important . It will be very easy to CLAIM it has no hormones added in production, but no way to prove or enforce it.
