He fell for the oldest trick in the book.

[–] serpineslair@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ah, I didn't enjoy that fall. I think I'll go for the premium fall next time.

So, what's the business model here exactly? We've got the cost of rent, the upfront cost of excavating a gigantic bottomless pit the likes of which has never been seen before, the legal team to deal with lawsuits, the PR team to offset the negative press resulting from the pit, the maintenance costs of the building, replenishing the shopping carts, and of course advertising.

Actually yeah, seems doable.

Didn't you see the soda machine? That rakes in the money.

[–] we_avoid_temptation@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 months ago

The soda machine is still $1. This both supports the operation and lures the unaware.

That’s just the built in business model of all of capitalism.

You're thinking of their competitor, Hole Foods.
