I was in Smart and Final yesterday when a single lady had four 24 count cases of soft drinks in her basket. They were on sale. I was shocked to find her paying for it with an EBT Food Stamp debit card. She was not going to use that for food, she was going to sell it on the street, at minimum doubling her money and game the system. I suspect she was also an illegal alien. Like anything free, people will find a way to take advantage of it.
Her husband might run a food truck.
Sodas on sale get wiped out very quickly here due to that. I have a hard time catching $0.99 2 liters before the inventory is gone. Same with meats on sale.
Set it up in a cooler outside for a dollar a can at a permanent garage sale as yet another profit center.
