RichardJensen Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Many items have to be that high to offset the much smaller amounts made on some set things like alcohol, gasoline...or in this case, new cars. Whoa, spare me your back-bacon eating, 3-down football watching sensibilities, eh. South of the 49th, alcohol is a major profit center for retailers of all stripes.

In Manitoba, Alcohol is purchased and distributed by the government to licensed retailers. The profit for the retailer is 10%. Alcohol costs the same amount in Churchill as it does in Winnipeg because of the price set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Lisa: Dad! You shouldn't wear glasses that weren't prescribed for you! Homer: (looking at Bart) Lisa just because you're ten feet tall doesn't mean you can tell me what to do. Bart: I'm Bart. earlier.... Homer: (putting on glasses he finds in a toilet) The sum of the squares of two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square of the third side. Anonymous guy: That's a right triangle you idiot Homer: D'oh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkFive Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Sorry, speaking from personal experience. In Manitoba, Alcohol is purchased and distributed by the government to licensed retailers. The profit for the retailer is 10%. I don't know what our profit margin is, but alcohol is distributed everywhere here - corner stores included (and on Sundays). When I go to visit my dad in Ontario, I have to go buy what I drink at the Beer Store or LCBO. I don't know if they are open on Sundays yet.

Only stores that are licensed by the MLCC can sell alcohol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
