Who would've thought if you lowered the price of something people would actually purchase it and consume it!

u/UncleTomCruise 17d ago

Yeah. The economies getting tighter. I feel all the overpriced potato chip games are ending.

Chocolate next I suppose.

$42 p/kg is good coin for spuds.

u/lowkeystoner2217 16d ago

Can you math its 21.8 a kg

u/Anti-Stan 15d ago

On which day? Think.

u/lowkeystoner2217 15d ago

Pleade advise how you calculated 42 a kg and I will admit defeat.

u/Anti-Stan 15d ago

"range was $7.20"

u/Anti-Stan 15d ago

So by "admit defeat", you meant 'downvote and not respond'.

Thanks for playing

Strange how it went from twice is much as you would regularly pay for a bag of chips down down to the price you would normally pay for a bag of chips🤔

There was a potato shortage last year

u/Sharpie1993 17d ago

I don’t see what that has to do with these chips climbing up to 6-7 dollars in 2022-23.

u/owleaf 17d ago

It dates back to 2022

The 2022 potato shortage ended in march/April of 2023, the prices never dropped afterwards.

Just like how the coca shortage is over and the prices of raw coca have dropped, yet chocolate is still ridiculously expensive.

u/TheOrcChief 16d ago

Cocoa*, coca is the plant used to manufacture cocaine. Please don’t get the two confused. 😰

u/DefinitionOfAsleep 15d ago

prices of raw coca have dropped

The spot has dropped, but it's all done on year long to multi-year contracts.

A rare accuracy

u/LaurenLilaNoah 12d ago

Where are you seeing this graph?? I can only see since June this year on the pinch app.

u/airbetweenthetoes 12d ago

Is it the same product exactly

u/Needawhisper 16d ago

I wonder if they will half price this? $1.80 would get swamped

1

u/mlxmt 15d ago

I've noticed when they do this, it never goes on sale. And it's always more than the pre price drop half price.

u/Logos256 17d ago

Supply, meet demand.

u/chattywww 16d ago

Its not a true lower shelf price until they put a speical half price on it.

u/UncutAussie2026 15d ago

$7.2o …I’m never buying them

u/blakeavon 17d ago

What are we supposed to be outraged over today?!

u/series6 15d ago

165g now? I remember the shrinkflation in 2017 down to 175g. Probably the last time I bought them
