@itjesus I agree with you on the soda price increase. It’s my beverage of choice so if it’s not on a sale or decent price I skip it. Try another store or wait till next week. Seems Everything (food) is on a 6 week cycle and I will stock up when it is on a decent price. No real
Sales on the holidays or anything similar now.
I realize it will never be 4/$10 again or anything close but I don’t want to pay more than 40 cents for a 12oz can. I can find that( in my area ) and just stock up in my garage fridge and the pantry.
Even the chips and snacks stuff is expensive grocery stores, so sure I’m losing a little weight by skipping calories. I still buy in bulk sizes at Sams Club. Usually same price but larger quantities vs grocery store sales on smaller bags/items.
It’s something we can live without and it is better for our health. We eat tons of vegetables and fresh fruits in our diet but we do enjoy eating snacks too. Like I want chips with my sandwich for quick lunch.
I hope you can check on line ads for various local stores and find something. I also check gas stations we used to find a sale on the 12 packs there occasionally.
Just be aware that 99cent 2L. of soda is close to date in grocery stores and it may not be as good, taste old or flat. I bought a few for a cook out and used 8. Some were ok but 2 were flat in my opinion.
