Look collusion is a thing, but it's illegal. Grocery stores, even the big chains in the US anyways are pretty cutthroat, they aren't making huge profits they're fighting to survive vs Amazon and the like. Anyways my point is that the claim that costs don't affect prices (and therefore losses from theft don't affect prices) is just silly.
