I wonder if there was any tangible impact to the Wendy's stock price after they announced they planned to give their customers a huge middle finger.

the local chinese takeout place, get this, they charge a different price for same food depending on whether you buy it at lunch or dinner. they call it a "lunch special". c'mon, who do they think they're fooling? this is textbook surge pricing and the bastards have been doing it for years.

Well I mean to be fair, Dave’s Singles are only going to be $1 during March Madness, and a double is going to be two, regardless of “time of day,” seems like reverse surging to me.

Wendigee posted:Pretty sure it's already defined in law that after you've paid they have no right to stop you from leaving a store open to the public. You absolutely can walk past someone "checking receipts" and they can't do poo poo to you unless it's like Sam's club or Costco where it's a membership driven store. I was talking to someone who's getting their security guard license this week and at least here this is absolutely true If they're unarmed they literally can do nothing except call the cops. If they're armed they have the legal authority to stop them. Armed costs more though so guess what most guards are!

Aren't stores insured for stuff? Like at the end of Do The Right Thing, the owners got insurance money. If a store had a significant amount of products stolen, wouldn't they have insurance to cover their loss?

They are to a degree and they build shoplifting losses into their P&L That being said, I'm sure insurers have a clause that states something like you have to take precautions against shoplifting for this to be in effect/compliance because otherwise there's no point in insuring them

I’m pretty sure if I was hiring armed security for my retail business one of my interview questions would be about if they can outrun and restrain a wheelchair guy without the need to fire a weapon into a human repeatedly. But hey that’s just me

The only reason people are turning on this latest bit of abject fuckery is they didn't do the obvious thing and just raise all of their prices, then "lower" them during slow periods and call it a discount. They'll figure that out in a few minutes and everybody will loving love being overcharged when it's busy.

pencilhands posted:idk why my neighbor is mad at me for setting his car on fire its insured But in that situation, your neighbor gets a check from the insurance company and can get a new car of equivalent or even better value, depending on their policy. Unless they lost something sentimental that they kept in their car for some reason, you were probably doing them a favor. If you set fire to it overnight, you even gave your neighbor a flawless excuse to miss work the next day.

I see the point but...... "I lost X number of products that I paid Y dollars for and was going to sell for Z dollars give me money to compensate me for the loss" is a bit different than "my vehicle was burned to the ground, similar used models are currently selling for somewhere between XXX dollars and YYY dollars, but mine was better because it had lower mileage/desirable option, was in better shape" and so on is not quite so cut and dried. The insurance company can try and screw you and give you a lowball offer when the actual value of your car is something that is so variable vs you paid this much for your stolen merchandise and were going to sell it for that much. Also a bigger retailer probably has lawyers to fight that insurance company if necessary to get more money, your average Joe Scumbag car owner probably doesn't.
