Places like Krogers and Walmart won't hesitate to sell below cost.......

My uncle Dee ran a Mobilgas station (sign of the flying red horse)

in the 1940's - and I remember how we kids used to love stomping on the bell cord that ran across the stalls for the gas pumps. Uncle Dee didn't like it, but sometimes he'd give us a piece of Fleer's Double Bubble bubble gum or penny candy to go about our business. I think gas was about 25 cents a gallon in those days, and he used to complain to other grownups there was no money in it. He made his money off the repairs and oil changes.

I expect it is tough to compete with sales in most things these days.
