Walmart and Pepsi caught price fixing (with proof) “Walmart found a creative, illegal way to make sure they have the lowest prices” “They're forcing companies to raise prices on any competitor who dares to sell items at a lower psice than Walmart” There are court documents from a lawsuit the federal government filed that shows this is exactly what’s happening “Independent grocers have been trying to figure out why this is happening for years. It doesn't add up. They'd lose money on almost every sale if they matched Walmart's prices. Well, the answer is in these two documents. Documents that were recently unsealed after the government tried to bury them. The evidence that's in there is explosive. I mean, it's just, it was beyond what I was expecting.”

Investigation finds the reason why prices on everyday products never seem to go down Walmart is making secret deals with major Big Food companies to set the price of items. If a different store chain tries to sell an item for cheaper, big food companies create plans to force those stores to increase their prices to be higher than Walmart prices. They do things like cut their promotion rates and increase their wholesale rates Because of this, Walmart sets the floor price. Whatever Walmart charges, no company can sell for cheaper because these secret deals will find ways to force those stores to increase their prices This means prices can never go down because there is no competition, Walmart sets our prices for products with these secret deals

NEW: Amazon has a scheme to offer the lowest prices – by raising prices everywhere else. If a vendor offers a lower price elsewhere, Amazon allegedly forces them to raise it, making you pay more than you should. We uncovered Amazon setting prices at Walmart and Target.

Americans buy 25% of their groceries at Walmart but the idea that Walmart has the lowest prices because of purchasing power, might only be partially true. According to a recent, unsealed federal lawsuit, Walmart used its status as best customer to influence Pepsi into surveilling and forcing Walmart competitors to RAISE their prices so that it was impossible for them to sell Pepsi for less than Walmart did. "It's hard to imagine that Pepsi is the only major supplier Walmart has this arrangement with." Is it legal? Not at all. But our government turned a blind eye to it. Source: perfectunion and ericgardner1 I'll post the full video below.

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

FTC documents show Pepsi is price fixing The FTC looked at internal emails with Pepsi and Walmart, they found they act as one company and Pepsi even takes action against grocery stores and other chains like Target if they price Pepsi as cheaply as Walmart does “The FTC looked at a bunch of internal Pepsi emails and communications. The executives at Pepsi would talk about Walmart's prices as our prices. As if this is, this is all one big company — Big rivals like Target, small mom and pop shops, regional chains, everywhere it could keep an eye on it, it did. And where it found that Pepsi prices in those other stores were getting low enough to really compete with Walmart, with all of the discounts and all of the other things that it was giving Walmart, it took action against those other stores. What does that look like? It reduced their deals, it reduced the discounts they were giving these other retailers. It even increased their wholesale prices, started to kind of ratchet it up more and more every year so that the price of Pepsi products at every other store that wasn't a Walmart were artificially higher for the consumer than they would have been if there was actual competition between Walmart and these stores. These stores wanted to push the prices down, but Pepsi simply wouldn't let them by charging them more” This is price fixing and illegal

Amazon has been coordinating with vendors and major retailers — including Target, Walmart, Chewy, and Home Depot — to raise prices across the market. This is a widespread scheme spanning years across markets — and it’s illegal. We’re fighting to stop it.

Former Walmart CEO Bill Simon says Walmart’s price hikes are unnecessary and they should be able to absorb costs of tariffs. Despite growing their profit margins and prices actually decreasing on impacted items, they’re still hiking prices and blaming it on tariffs..

"Should I lower my prices?" When someone says your price is too high, what they're ACTUALLY saying is that your price is higher than their perception of value. You could lower the price to meet their perception... OR you could raise their perception of value to meet your price.

WHY WON'T OPTUM SHOW THEIR PRICES? In any other industry, if someone offers a lower price than competitors, they will boast about it by showing their prices. Why won't Optum show their prices if they claim their prices are lower? The simple answer: because when they add all the extra charges AND fees/markups, their prices are not lower, and Mark calls them out on it. 💯 Watch the full duscussion here:

According to one customer, people are damaging the digital pricing labels at his grocery store. Despite outcry from consumers across the country, multiple giant supermarket chains are implementing digital price labels and dynamic pricing strategies where the cost of items fluctuate frequently based on multiple factors. Walmart, the country's largest grocer, hopes to have digital price labels at 2,300 U.S. stores by 2026. Kroger is expanding the use of digital labels this year after testing them at 20 stores. Whole Foods is testing the labels in nearly 50 stores. Customers worry these digital labels will let companies raise prices at a moment's notice, making greater profits off essential items at the grocery store.
