A supermarket I go to sometimes around a year ago decided to “reorganize” everything. The first day I went there after the reorganization I almost suffered a meltdown. You know where they put the biscuits and cookies?
You guessed it! In the same aisle than stationery and printer ink. I am not kidding, the psychopath who did this, for some reason decided that printer ink was somehow related to breakfast biscuits.
They do this shit on purpose. Years ago I worked for the evil empire (Wal-Mart) and they put all the coffee filters next to the coffee makers in the appliance section, not with the coffee in the grocery section or with the consumable paper products. It forces customers to walk around the store to find things. And they would rearrange it every 6 months or so.
When I was but a youth, I met someone and asked where they worked. They, too, said “the evil empire” (meaning Walmart) but I, being naive and having recently discovered Linux, said “Microsoft?” They laughed and responded in the affirmative.
I believed that for weeks before a Walmart-specific story came up in conversation.

For when you want your coffee really, really black.
Unless you’re out of blue ink, then you can’t print black coffee, even if your black cartridge is full.
So very glad I ditched inkjets. 🙃
I think it’s more plausible that the original fridge had broken down, so butter was relocated to an alternative temporary.
Why would there already be a fridge in the stationary and ink aisle?
So you have everything you need to write the company a strongly worded letter about their reorganization.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen something like printer ink at a grocery store.
