I'm not trying to make an argument that donating the inventory would have been profitable for them. I think we're talking past each other. Have a good day.
Not only not profitable, but a massively money-losing venture. Hence why no corporation does this.
I think it's a strange assertion to say no corporation does this when there definitely ones that do. Money losing is a matter of perspective. Companies use loss leaders to generate other income all the time. Donations are very good PR. Anyway, it was just one suggestion of something they could have done that wasn't the scummiest thing possible.
