It's not uncommon for brands looking to expand market share to reduce price to sale more quantity
believe the word you were looking for is "sell", but that's not the problem here...
i know it's common to drop prices to entice buyers to gain market share... but with a competing company sabotaging itself already, giving away market share in the process, there is NO REASON to drop your price right now... that's the fricking point, or did you not include that in your assessment?

Obviously there is a decent margin in bulk beer manufacturing to give a temporary discount to gain new customers.
they are already gaining new customers, due to a company being stupid as frick, WITHOUT having to drop their prices, so why would/should they?

i do... and they do very well...

If other companies give customers similar discounts, it will guarantee that these former BL people won't go back.
wut? so, a product that is highly about subjective consumer taste, you are saying that they will be GUARANTEED, forever, market share?? foreign companies, at that??
bruh... i can't even...

Oh look another Bud Light sucks thread.
It's still the same price at every store I've been to in South Louisiana. And it's still getting bought up.
Are you sure it's "still getting bought up" by actual consumers rather than old inventory being removed/bought back by AB?
This isn't some made up story. They are going to sell BILLIONS of dollars less Bud Light than did a year ago because they used a tranny to tell their long-standing customers they were "problematic." This is fact.

Ok my next question is why? If you are boycotting bud light for promoting the LGBTQ movement and forcing it on merchandise, why would one buy a beer doing the exact same thing? And pay double for that beer and think you are fighting the fight?
People realize that most major beer companies have beliefs/advertising that should be problematic as well to the people that are boycotting Bud Light. Sure there is some hypocrisy and willful ignorance in this whole thing. You aren't making some revelation here.
NEVERTHELESS people dumping Bug Light for Coors Light (or whatever other beer they choose) can STILL be pretty impactful. You don't think a lot of other company execs are looking at what happened to Bud Light (literally losing BILLIONS of sales because of their tranny stunt and subsequent response) and thinking - "damn there IS a line we better not cross"?
That's one of the reasons this Bud Light thing has gotten so much traction and staying power. It was the perfect product (easily replaceable by a dozen like products) for people to take a stand without really sacrificing anything. The reality is most boycotts don't work if it's not EXTREMELY convenient, easy for people to participate. It's not going to stop Miller or Coors from putting up rainbow colors in June, but it absolutely will send a message that there is a line you can cross that is going to hurt your company financially. If it causes other companies to show just a little more restraint/common sense before letting their freak flags fly, then it's an easy win for conservatives.

This. Why not go after the biggest and show the others that there are major financial implications to shoving this shite in consumers’ faces? It can only be ignored for so long. The average consumer generally didn’t care about them supporting the LGB portion of the alphabet soup brigade. Once they started including the rest…the gloves came off.

Unfortunately the message execs will gather is continue to pump money and resources to the trans and alphabet peoples movement behind the curtain. Which honestly, is more impactful and dangerous so to speak

This would imply that all these companies and executives actually believe in the cause and are not just virtue signaling.
I don’t believe for a second that’s the case, this is simply a virtue signal gone wrong that they can’t seem to get out of now. If only suburban white women drank bud light it would all have gone according to plan

If you think it's normal for a man to chop his shite off, thinks he is a woman and tries to act like a woman, you, like him, have mental health issues and should literally seek mental help from Dr's.

Look, people are not going to boycott beer overall. But where Bud Light fricked up was that they forgot perception is reality and they made themselves the greater of several identically priced evils.

The price is dropping because it is a perishable item.
Nobody wants old skunky beer. Ironically “No Skunky Beer” was a 90s campaign by AB and when they started putting “born on” dates on bottles.

Negative, don't usually go to Walmarks.
Costcos and Krogers are about it.
