The margins can be big! I've compared Walmart or Target products on Amazon vs. in the store. Sometimes they are 200% higher, however it tends to be on low priced products.

A bottle of vitamins on Amazon might be $9, but you can order them right now and get them delivered to your door. In the store it's $5. A LOT of people are willing to buy from Amazon evening knowing it's more.
