Good lord.

The junk at Aldi isn't "speciality products" LOL.

You're dealing in generalisations, and assumptions based on your own preferences.

Maybe start by assuming that the people that own small grocers know more about the industry and how to compete than you do.

Sorry, I thought we were having a civilised conversation about how a known problem could be solved. Not being rude arseholes slinging insults at each other and using the tired right-wing "ignore evidence from elsewhere in the world because we're special" bullshit as justification.
