Stores loose money on Boxing Day sales?

[MarkoD]

They lose money on one or 2 products which are "door crashers" and then they rape you on everything else.

Trust me, I sold home theatre equipment for 5 years.

The tv is at cost or just below cost. But the cables, hd box, warranty, etc have a lot of markup

Same thing with fish stuff. Most people that bought 30 dollar boxes of salt probably ended up spending on other things that had markup for sure
