Yeah, lol. You do. Profits pay for advertising, so their profits pay for their advertising, therefore, part of their markup is to pay for that. They're just not as blatant about it, which, I presume, is why people don't say much.
I do know that if I looked at a Wally World receipt and there was an extra 2% tacked on after state taxes, their markup, etc... I'd be pretty pissed, and would probably pitch a fit about it in a rather unnerving tone.
