[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1119794, member: 43436"] Kroger's in the process of overhauling its pricing models, eliminating double coupons & reducing sale items in favor of lower everyday pricing. But even then, the pricing on a typical basket will always be at least 10% higher than Walmart -- products sold at grocery stores have incredibly high product margins, but are usually eaten by high overhead costs. This hurts Kroger, which operates neighborhood stores, but helps Walmart, which attracts large numbers of consumers. Of course, Walmart also has the luxury of high-margin non-perishable general merchandise and Kroger continues to provide full-service. If you can tolerate private-label goods, try shopping at Aldi's. Aldi's is cheaper than Walmart and its employees earn among the highest wages in the industry, and like UPS, even PTers are eligible for a very good benefit pacakge. [/QUOTE]
