    I get all groceries, fast food, drinks, snacks, etc. are becoming more expensive across the board but I’m 100% with you. It’s like people bitching about the price of cigarettes. If the crap that’s bad for you is becoming too expensive maybe it’s a win-win and time to quit while saving money.

      Cigarette smokers know they’re bad. It’s an addiction.

      I used to eat 2-4 full bags of chips every week, but kow that they’re over 5 dollars a pop I’ve cut them out completely.

      I’m absolutely certain the markup on these chips is almost the full price. They can’t cost more than a few cents to make at scale.
