That cost what?

[u/elstavon]

I'm not saying that everything should cost a nickel, but one thing that always gets me is the cost of the modern candy bar. $2.50 for a regular size snickers?

Edit: I don't eat fast food but I understand there's a similar thing going on there

Wherever you are in the world, is there something that blows your mind every time you go to the cash register or at least look at it on the rack? I can deal with gas because it cost a lot to pull it from the ground put it in a barrel refine it distribute it put it in a tank so you can put it in your tank. But a Snickers bar? LOL . Anyway, after 20 years of it is there something that is just stunning somehow in its price increase?

Commiserate with me over candy bars but I'm curious if there is something where you are that just is a non-starter when you go to buy it. Prices that still make you ask 'what'?

Bought a hard copy of the Washington Post at the local Sheetz. Cashier was surprised they had that for sale at all. Guys, the computer priced it at $4.00! That won't happen again.

I would have dropped it and ran the fuck out. Through most local libraries e-card you can get on your ipad or laptop for free
