There are movie stars spending $4,000 a week to have their dog's massaged for goodness sakes. I don't think selling walmart products for a $10-$15 profit is "scr%wing your customers.
That being said I do like your reasonable business sense of keeping your customers. You would do very well and would have many repeat customers.
