    but I highly doubt there is some money box that pays for customer “freebies” that isn’t somehow funded from customer revenue.

    Marketing budgets funded by venture capitalists who made the wrong bet

      Yeah, possibly. Not sure how often they are involved with funding Costco samples haha.

      (And there are definitely no VC involved in the discussion I had with the person, as we were discussing small family owned businesses that only have one location)
