  1. Changes all the prices to 100x, so a single case of beer will be $900-1800.
  2. Give every customer a spin on the wheel, to see what their discount is!
  3. 99% chance to spin 99% off. If someone happens to get unlucky, just have them spin again.

So the thieves would be limited to stealing 1/100th, or risk felony.

There's probably something obvious that I'm missing.

That's a good idea, but the problem is that you are competing with stores run by asian immigrants. Expel them and your idea would be viable.

Not really. I'm positioning this as a full size supermarket (just in half the footprint because the aisles are more like an amazon warehouse than a traditional grocery). They are running convenience stores, and they make most of their profit off of single serving booze and hot food. I'm not planning to do either.

I've had similar ideas. Keep at it. Try a prototype model before asking for millions. Ignore naysayers who never started a business in their life. You're thinking about this the right way.
