I did have to deal with a store where I almost couldn't buy something, because I refused to signup for the "customer club program discount card", which gives you a 20% discount. The staff just looked confused and didn't know what to do. In the end my wife filled in the form and got the stupid card.
You can always get a 20% discount on appliances in big-box stores, if you're flexible on the brand. I got 66% discount on a extractor fan when updating our kitchen, that's just insane.
Edit: depending on your script, you could get the Busybox image and use that as a base. Probably a little more work, but it does fix some of your dependency issues. It doesn't have bash, git or fzf though, so there's a fun challenge getting those build.
Retail is low margin only if you subtract salaries/offices/marketing AND cost of goods.
The whole reason I'm stopping to look around is because every price tag just got 10% lower.
Not sure why this would turn anybody off. Plenty of stores do this.
Think of an online retailer that has been around a while and is solvent though and I'll bet they don't do stuff like this.
