That's how ALDI works. They fluctuate with the market prices. But many of the larger chains sell things at a fixed price because that's what lots people want. They will make more money when the market prices are low and less or none when they are high. Many even sell staples like eggs and milk as loss leaders and neve make money off them. Of course things like the avian flu cause exceptions because they're not going to go bankrupt selling you eggs for half what they paid.

People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement
