Sure if you believe in fairytales.

The way capitalism works is that you try and make as much money selling a product as you can. If the market price for milk is already established at say $4/jug and people are paying it there’s no business argument for any vendors to sell it for less than that because supply has increased. They’re not running these businesses out of benevolence, their goal is to maximize their profits.
