Obviously prices are higher. Have you noticed, though, that sizes are shrinking?
I love chocolate, paricularly Dove milk chocolate. A bag of it was $5.87! AND, when I pulled it off the shelf the bag was puffed up with air, and there were 10 pieces inside. I remember beingable to buy a bag for $3.50 and there were 26 pieces in it.
I put it back. I just couldn't do it.
Now, chocolate is a dumb example, I realize. The same thing is happening to everything. Here's the good news: smaller packages means you can store them more easily as you stock up before prices go hyper-crazy. And, another positive thing: it might be a good time to break some bad habits (such as not buying the chocolate, for me).
One last thought: the smaller volumes is a sneaky tactic, and many people will not understand the double-whammy and will go through their grocery money way too fast. Credit card debt will spike, but so will crime. Keep extra vigilant.
Thanks! I will go back and get some Hershey's!
Buy green and blacks 85% organic all the rest is junk. Youll get a healthy dose of zinc and copper both in the pure form iv suggested, thye will bind With eachother and make a super charger. But rem you are what you eat and that other shit is just that .. let your food be your meds. Not your med is sin. Get it good!!!!
But... muh chocolate : )
Plain, as nuts will go rancid eventually.
I'm currently doing a test on peanut M&Ms. I bought a small bag in 1999, a "Millennium" special, and might open it in 2024. Then again, I might do better to sell it online. I saw a girl at a yard sale a few years ago who said she found an old dirty Lance cracker under a cabinet when cleaning. She sold it on EBay for $15. I might be rich. :)
LOL... you could test the waters with an e-bay post.
I've never put anything on EBay. I'll have to look into it. I have had someone else unload things for me on FB Marketplace. Those were all in-person cash deals.
