I am currently living in an area where Kroger has actual competition and I am absolutely baffled how they stay in business here.

That was the motive behind the proposed merger with Albertson's - eliminate all the competition.

It's weird, Albertson's was the expensive place anywhere I went which had both (and Safeway after the merger). It was Walmart that was anchoring most prices, then Kroger. My perception of that proposal at the time was that it would be unleashing the worst tendencies of Albertson's.

I was out of the US for a long time, so I missed Kroger going batshit crazy.
