Maybe it’s like when the clothing manufacturers make you take the full range of sizes. Why there are only the tiniest sizes on sale at the end. Someone in the rag trade explained it to me one time. Most of the items are in the middle of the size range, but you have to buy in groups of twelve, including the large and small end; you can’t pick and choose sizes.

Why those groups of twelve are not representative of the public, I dunno. Maybe they make more profit on the little sizes, less fabric involved.

Petite women make out like bandits at sale time.

You want Wheaties, Mr. Store Owner, you gotta buy raspberry jam coated corn twists too.

Just guessing.
