    Supermarkets maximizing profit: put ads everywhere and hide the most commonly bought foods!

    Many supermarkets already do things like putting the milk and bread at opposite sides of the store, so you have to walk through the whole store to get both. You’d often be walking past the end caps while doing so, which are essentially ads (companies pay to have their products displayed at the end caps)

      To be fair, milk at the back of the store is better to keep the milk cold from getting out of the truck and into the fridge.
