Do wealthy Americans who are part of the 1% still go shopping at stores like Walmart themselves, or do they have employees to do it for them?

How often do mystery shoppers do things?
Hello to my retailers, How often do you get mystery shoppers? Like Lidl, they get one once a week. I think that's a lot. How is it with you?
Why is there no cheese from Wisconsin available in Germany?
Wisconsin is known throughout the US for its delicious cheese. Unfortunately, I've only seen cheese from European countries in German supermarkets. Is it because Germans only associate American cheese with processed cheese, like the kind used in burgers? Or would transporting it over such a long distance simply be too expensive?
Take expiry date goods with you?
Hello to all food retail salespeople. What's the situation with you? Are you allowed to take written-off goods (broken, old, etc.) home for free? How do you handle this?
How do supermarkets make money from discounts or promotions?
Hey people, I was wondering why companies or supermarkets collect money despite promotions. Sure, a lot of people will buy, but then sales will be lower somehow. And I don't understand the loyalty points thing either. So, it's a good thing, but still confusing.
What product groups does the food retail trade have?
I log my personal purchases. Firstly, to make real price comparisons on a kilogram or liter basis, and secondly, to be able to document inflation. Now I can't sort fruit spread, jam, and marmalade alphabetically, and the EAN code doesn't seem helpful either. So I need product groups. Where can I find out which product…
What do you call those things that supermarket employees use to transport goods to their shelves?
I can hardly describe it, these metal boxes on wheels? Well, I can't find anything that has "car" in the name anyway. . It would be great if someone had a name for it so I could find companies or models that I could buy!
Can milk be stored unrefrigerated?
Hello, I bought this milk and now I would like to know how long it will keep once opened and unrefrigerated, because I don't want to drink it all today and I don't have a refrigerator. The milk was not refrigerated in the store either. Thanks in advance!!
What do you think about "USA Weeks" at supermarkets?
For example at Aldi next week. I always think these kinds of promotions are great, even though I can't buy that much of the stuff.
Are there any supermarkets in Germany that mainly sell American products?
There are also Turkish and Asian supermarkets, for example. Are there American ones? Not that I have the money for it. Just asking out of curiosity.
