    In the USA there’s studies and such that track how to maximize money from someone shopping. Milk is a well used staple, so it’s always in the fucking back of the store. So you have to go past most everything else to get to it. Then end caps have special, cheap pick up deals for someone who is just here for milk that they may not pass up. Then the checkout the rule is something like $3 and less for items there. Candy, water, soda, everything a kid craves right there to whine and pester the parents about.
