If cvs and walgreens tried to merge like this, it would be a huge problem. I use this example because I work in the pharmaceutical industry. It would not be accepted at all because the price gouging would be even worse than what it is already.

That's what Safeway and Kroger are attempting. Hope the regulatory agency says no.

Kroger is already a parent company for a significant number of other stores so I really hope they don't allow it.
