So let's see, the store loses power and has to run on a generator and has to pay a lot extra to get supplies shipped in overnight and the store can't raise their prices to reflect their extra costs in getting merchandise to the people in need even though they're going the extra mile to stay open during the disaster? The store is probably short handed and has to pay its employees overtime but they can't raise their prices to cover the extra expenses? Darn, it would discourage a lot of merchants to even try to operate their businesses during that time. I would probably just lock up and hire armed security to prevent looting.
