Look up "loss leader" lots of business do it just fine user.

have you seen the lineups for fried chicken in america?
black people are dyyyyiinnn for that greasy stuff and will get ruuulll angry if they dont git it

>A loss leader (also leader) is a pricing strategy where a product is sold at a price below its market cost to stimulate other sales of more profitable goods or services. With this sales promotion—marketing strategy, a "leader" is used as a related term and can mean any popular article, i.e., one sold at a normal price.

It's America, anything that makes americans fatter will eventually turn profitable.

this isn't fried chicken

I love Costco

Costco makes profit from memberships

that's impossible. it's free anyways

this
They know that cheap chicken and cheap pizza is what brings people to the door

>free
wut

Fun fact: Costco is the nations largest Pizza Chain

Literally no black people line up to get these chickens. It's only chinks and pajeets.

I work as a cook, never had this rotisserie, but fried chicken is a work of art, my friends
How is Costco’s Rotisserie?

Because it stimulates other business and also cuts out the competition. The reasoning is that it's better to sell at a loss than let the competitor get the sales at regular price.

I hate Costco. Trying to navigate around all the fat fuck Americans crowding the free samples makes my blood boil

Is this why eggs are so fucking cheap it doesn't make sense, 36 eggs at Walmart for $1.70. Between the farmers, shipping, distribution and walmart itself how tf is anyone making profit at 5 cents an egg

How much for a chicken?

see look here user >niggers
its the same answer everytime

Knott’s Berry Farm is the best fried chicken I’ve had
the Hasterts own a fried chicken restaurant chain, but it’s like giving money to Dennis Hastert’s legal defense fund, so I won’t give the name

This is why Costco requires memberships to shop. It keeps the black people away

And Mexicans. I love me some roasted chicken.

memberships card only

They don't.
Businesses all price certain products at a loss so they can mark up other products.

Costco is awesome and you are poor and retarded.

lose money on the chicken, make money on everything else being marked up. pol is so economically retarded sometimes. its the same logic as gas stations luring you in with a free hot dog with gas fill up. you're probably gonna want a 1.00 drink with it that cost them .02. that .20 hot dog just made them .78

Costco pizza is great
fuck off gay angel man

I respect your digits, but your opinion is stupid. I'm willing to get in a fist fight with you over Costco pizza.

$4.99

They cant.
No way can you buy a million chickens for $300

Their rotisserie chickens are good. Too bad they don't have things that I buy on the regular.

so they sell the chicken at cheap price but make profit on grape drank n walamelon?

Pretty sure unused chickens are put into making chicken bakes, and those are delicious.

Not with that attitude.

that's an illegal practice. I doubt they do that

Costco doesn't have any "loss-leaders". They sell some shit at cost, and most things only slightly above cost. But nothing below cost. And that slight markup is all it takes to break even on all business related costs.
That means all memberships are pure fucking profit.

Fuck you for not providing link also saged this isn’t politics faggot.

Depending what you buy, the mark ups are still pretty reasonable. I've noticed a lot of their fruit prices aren't great on in-season fruit compared to my local grocery store. But they have a 7 cubic foot chest freezer for 140, that's a good price.

i wish we had a costco nearby but all we have is same's kike club

Because they're going to hire a bunch of illegals and refugees to work the factory.

to lure people into buying a membership

literally this.
most fast food places do this with their entrees, and make up the difference with ridiculous margins on sodas and sides

This is just speculation, but logically, it would make sense to do.
>buy and sell chickens at a loss
>chickens that aren't sold after closing are taken apart and used in Chicken Bake food court item
>bread uses some cellulose as a filler (mmm fiber!)
>chicken bake food court item offsets loss and pushes it back into a profit
Costco reps, contact me if you'd like to pay me to be a consultant.

>entrees
For fucks sake america, fries before your big mac is not a fucking entree

12 million niggers in my country, and every last one of them is buying fried chicken in record numbers with my tax dollars. Fucking hell.

They want to take over the market with low price, eliminate competition. Too many similar faggots, that's their chance, all or nothing.

Nice. You were first, but you only covered the basics user. If you want your post to be recognized it helps to reply to the OP so your post isn't lost in the noise.

Have an upvote
and for you gold

Have you ever wondered why casinos give players free drinks?

What? A lot of grocers will take unsold baked/fried chicken and either sell it cold at reduced price or use it in other prepared items like salads.

Exactly, $300 million chicken factory and $300 million cholesterol medicine factory

That's fucking stupid. Why would you use a factory to make chickens when they can simply be grown on a farm?

Attached: 1530236364130.png (600x569, 74K)

Yeah, but casinos almost always win as long as they have some customers. Costco can't win unless they have most of the chicken eating customers.

It’s in the title
Are you regarded?

Why are Costco threads so comfy on Jow Forums?

If you didn't know most grocery that have a deli/bakery that makes fresh food each day are the loss leaders of the store. They are conveniently placed near the departments that usually bring in the most money, meat departments and high profit grocery items.

OP doesn't understand what a "loss leader" is. You advertise something at a price so low you actually lose money selling it. But the deal attracts people to your store who then buy other stuff that is sold for a wide profit margin. Overall the vendor makes a profit on the transaction.

Selling high fructose corn syrup soft drinks is a huge part of the profit margin when it comes to fast food. People pay $1+ for a glass carbonated water and $0.03 worth of corn syrup with some caramel color added.

Costco gives me thousands of dollars in comped chicken.

Ahh capitalism, what better economic growth than selling stuff that makes people work and at same time go sick, keeps the goyim circus rolling, so you don't have time to look at men behind the curtain who make you run with their money. It's all good as long as masters have people who provide for them, 10 million unemployed and 10 million illegal, somebody will play along in grand circus and that's enough.

Cause people don't just go to Costco for the chicken, ya opioid riddled white trash. They'll buy so much marked up Costco trash that spending 5 dollars on a 8 dollar chicken works in the retailers favor in the end,

The sides that they sell with them cost nothing and have a big mark up.

Don't ever eat raw chicken.

coward

Peruvians here loving it too.

What do you rhink of our own pollo a la brasa? It was George Washington's favorite food. In English it's called blackened chicken. It's made with beer.

I've done it before and lived.

Don't ever eat raw bear though. Or any carnivore.

I would probably survive, but just because i rarely eat chicken, which is why my immune system is strong.

Every wild meat should be medically examined before consumed.

>loss leader
you sure are stupid op

Yub, same reason they got those dankass hotdogs for so cheap

define 'medically checked'

Well by examine do you mean look at it, or sending it to a lab?

Internal examination of an animal that's not bestiality.

you have to present your membership card to shop at Costco. Barely any negroes there.

We have a special law for this how to create rooms for examination, what equipment, how to do it. It's special kind of veterinary process.

Here you can hire someone like a traveling butcher that will come and clean, butcher and inspect the meat for you, but it's not a requirement.

Sounds lame.

Here certain animals in certain locations may require that you bring the animal's head to the parks and wildlife department for testing. But that's for testing to protect wildlife, not testing to protect you. Protecting yourself if your own job. We don't want laws about that.

It's illegal here to examine meat on yourself or loosely, you need to check it for diseases in sterile environment with surgical gloves, remove intestines..etc, the examination has to be completed in max 18 hours by professionals and the meat has to be recorded by hunter's association.

That seems excessive for meat that is for personal consumption. Are you sure that not the requirement for selling meat harvested from hunting?

I had dead deer here, from car or one fallen from hill, i guess i could eat it just like that illegally, but i can't sell it.

i'm glad nips caught up with the Grande Padre man

Hunters have guns here, you can't just kill animals anywhere you want. Hunters are an organization.

>but i can't sell it.
I see, you're talking about something really different. Here everyone keeps what they hunt for themselves. If they did want to sell it they would need to go through all the same inspections as meat sold in stores.

Nuggets and literally every side sold that isn't a part of a meal are though you fuckwit.

Well you can't keep it for yourself if animals are protected, then animals go extinct.

And they deal in volume as well. Walmart only clears an average of 4 cents out of every dollar spent in their stores after expenses, but they made $118 Billion last quarter. SO it not only works but works very well.

I think we are having some translation issues. This part of hunting is very regulated here too.

Costco stock is up like 175% since i bought it, I think they know what theyre doing

There's a difference if your house is next to big forest or houses are around a small forest. I guess they will allow a guy who has a house next to big forest to hunt more freely. If we had rabbit/hog infestation like USA/Australia then maybe we could hunt all of them freely too, until there's less of them.

I always find it amazing how a lot of restaurants will charge almost $3 for a fucking soft drink.

The 1.50 hotdog and drink isn't a loss leader. They make profit on that.
Costco doesn't do any loss leaders. At all.

Chink here that roasted chicken is actually pretty fucking good Raj and I know what's up

Come for the chicken, stay for the toilet paper. Easy win for them.

Yeah, it is the same as there 1.50 for a huge hot dog and a drink.

I love Costco chickens. They are very big and five bucks is nothing for a fully cooked five pound chicken. Big fucking chickens. Big Big Big!

exactly. i ran a meat market. we had loss leaders every week and posted an overall profit of 16-20% every month.

Soda is not profitable it's expensive as hell.
