Who decides what big box sells? Our GAME got us answers

Planet Money creates a board game called “Sell Me a Sasquatch” and takes it behind the closed doors of big box retailer buyer meetings. The episode reveals how products actually end up on shelves—what buyers look for, how decisions get made, and how much power those deciders have. After pitching to several stores, the hosts learn the fate of their game and what compromises are required to land a deal.
