Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I view this as a self correction in itself as well. Walgreens is losing money because they skewed so far that they're annoying customers into leaving en masse for other options. Now their options are they can either go back to the old model that worked better, or they can keep playing hardball until more stores go out of business, and someone else can take over that corner and sell better.
