“We live in a society.”
turns out people really like not starving or freezing to death, who would’ve thought? Maybe the EU could finance a multi million € study to confirm this.
Good, this means they lose customers. They are the most expensive supermarkets in my area, 20% more expensive than other non-discount supermarkets.
and that is just a consequence of the major price increases of almost everything.
There is a documentary om YT – might be by ARTE – that goes into how Cartefour and others all but blackmail their suppliers in order to get the lowest price possible, even if it hardly leaves suppliers money to cover their own costs. If you refuse to go along, you’re basically cut out from the market
Oh no, we can’t beat our last year record profits by the set target ! How can we survive (and receive our multi million bonuses) ?!
Its the damn penny-pinching workers, what do they need money for anyway ?
I have basically stopped buying meat. Prices are insane.
Conclusion is to save the cooperations while quiet a few of us will miss a meal or two to pay for energy, gasoline and rent 😍

Consumer here. Can confirm.
The only solution to penny-pinching is to ban the penny. That’s what Canada did.
I’m quite amazed by the audacity to complain and about the tone.
Carrefour [made record profits in 2020](https://www.retaildetail.eu/news/food/carrefour-sees-record-performance-2020/) and [2021](https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/carrefour-confident-turnaround-after-2021-profit-rise-record-cash-2022-02-16/) and in top 3 all around Europe by income, you could you know be more conservative about your financial projections as we’re in the biggest energy crisis for the past 50+ years.
