    I mean it really should be obvious. There is a rite aid near me that is going out of business, so they rarely restock shelves. The only shelves that are ever not looking completely barren are the shelves of things that are locked up. Not only are the locked up shelves not barren, they are completely full. That should tell you all you need to know right there. Unlock the fucking shelves, you’re literally going bankrupt.

        The one here had their drink cooler actively broken, making weird noises and smells, for two full months before someone finally put up a sign that said "sorry, the cooler isn't working; the drinks are fine but warm".
