Someone told me the product with best margin that Costco sells is ... Kirkland toilet paper.
They drove down the cost to absolute minimum simply by opening their own factory.
- shadowbannedtoo 8y agoIt clogs up plumbing. (I've been a Plumber some years when times are rough.) Just take my word for it. HN'er, "What should I buy?" Try to buy the cheap one ply stuff. (I'm typing to know one because Dong hellbanned my ip. My posts offended people? I offended know one except a thin skinned Moderator, whom emailed me unsolicited. Yea Slick--I never gave you permission to contact me. I was just trying to be honest in all my posts? Still won't kiss your ass Donger. I am coding a alternative. It will ge something between this site, and 4chan. You will have to be pretty deranged to get any petty hellbans.).

- benj111 8y ago"best margins" suggests highest profit as percentages of retail price right? That sounds wrong. Toilet paper isn't a traditionally high margin thing, and I doubt they'd be able to wring out much more margin by buying the factory, or else everyone would do it. High margin products traditionally are either the luxury products, low volume products, or convenient/convenience products (chocolates by the till, sandwiches to go). Now its possible that toilet roll is their most profitable product in absolute terms. Everyone needs toilet roll so they probably sell a lot.
