And yet I'm still surprised and dismayed when 20oz coke zeros cost more than 3$ yesterday

"Why did the soda cost go up?"
Jess👾JessTheUnstill@infosec.exchangeOct 22, 2026, 2:24 PM@RoseRaven The foods I always buy creep up slowly enough that I don't notice it as much. But then I'll look at something I infrequently buy and it's just WHAT THE FUCK? Why is a bag of Doritos $5?
the elder seaeldersea@expressional.socialOct 22, 2026, 2:26 PMSnack foods have always felt deceptively expensive (per pound is crazy) but these days it's just an easy nope.
I guess I should be glad I don't drink soda because $3 for 20oz is robbery. Seltzer is still usually a dollar or slightly above per liter, or about 50 cents a can when it's on sale.
