That may be illegal to sell alcohol that cheap

I’ve seen before where items are set to that price when the store wants to write a product off. We found a dog toy at Petco that rang up at a nickle. The cashier didn’t catch it because we bought several other normally priced things. We took that purchase to the car and went back in to buy a bunch more of the nickle toys. The cashier obviously noticed this time and explained that those items weren’t supposed to be on the shelf any longer and they weren’t supposed to sell them. We got to keep the one in the car but couldn’t buy the rest in the second purchase. The low cost is supposed to catch the cashier’s eye that something isn’t right but that requires them to be paying attention.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to damage them out or some other vendor returns process?

Definitely fucked up and good he’s cut from the company…but damn, the wife has a huge steaming pile of shit to clean up taking over the company – destroyed public image, likely a divorce, trying to rebuild everything from scratch. Good luck.

So people who sell beer in the USA have more morality in reaction to pedophiles than most churches?
That tracks, somehow.

Interesting they just didn’t take it off the shelves to send back to the vendor.
I work in the Vision Center of a Walmart and we had a brand of glasses called Sean John. It was co-owned or sponsored or something with Diddy. And when the news came out about him. They had us remove those glasses from our display effective immediately the day they sent out that email.
Though the same glasses came back to us about 6 months later now rebranded as Reverb. Same models and all, just new brand name printed on the sides. And now selling for slightly cheaper interestingly enough.
