Okay, hear me out: Why are dollar stores selling avocados that aren’t trash but actually fire? Is this some retail sorcery or am I just easily impressed? :avocado::thinking:

LOL it’s the new ‘Guacconomics’. They buy those avos on the cheap, sell 'em like gold. Pure retail gold :1st_place_medal:.

Nah bro, it’s a trap! They lure you in with the avocados, then you end up buying like 10 other things you didn’t need. Retail 101 :bullseye:.

Fun fact: Dollar stores have the SAME suppliers as upscale grocery stores sometimes. But shhh, don’t tell anyone :eyes:.

It’s not just about avos, y’all. It’s the vibes. Dollar stores know we’re too broke for Whole Foods, but still want that bougie brunch aesthetic :joy::clinking_glasses:.

Peep the branding strategy. They use the ‘surprise and delight’ tactic. You find something good, you come back. Genius.

Real talk tho, I made a killer TikTok about dollar store hauls. Got like 15k likes. The avocado segment popped off! :chart_increasing::video_camera:

It’s like the underdog strategy. They play up being ‘cheap’ but hit you with quality surprises. That’s what keeps peeps coming back.

Plot twist: Avocados are actually the black market currency of the retail world. Wake up sheeple! :joy::joy:

Why pay $3 at Safeway when you can get the same avo for $1? That’s some capitalism hack right there. :money_with_wings::money_with_wings:

Dollar Store CEO: Hold my beer while I revolutionize the avo market. It’s lowkey becoming a legit retail case study.

Also, less waste! Dollar stores sometimes buy overstock that’d end up in landfills. So it’s kinda…green? :globe_showing_europe_africa:

Just wait till Gen Z has infiltrated the retail boardrooms, we’ll be making avocados free for all. :joy:

It’s all about demand. We want cheap avos, they provide cheap avos. They know their market, and it’s working! :bar_chart:

I’m telling you, dollar stores are the new IKEA. You go in for one thing, come out with a cart full :joy:

Okay, but did anyone else notice the avos are sometimes perfectly ripe? It’s like they’re playing 4D chess.

Moral of the story? Never underestimate the power of strategic retail, folks. They’re playing chess, we’re playing checkers.
