A Canadian shopper's post about the price of turkey at a Loblaw-owned store has raised the eyebrows of many customers.

Looks like Roblaw’s at it again… robbing the working class to keep obscene profits rolling to the Parasite Class. And I bet the farmer who raised those turkeys get only a few dollars per.

I would hope that they would be able to forecast demand reasonably well and use any extra for other products that might sell better in between holidays, like cold cuts, before it gets stuffed and packaged up only to end up in the dumpster.

Folks sometimes forget that actually selling the thing is a part of the greedy profit maximizing goal
