>>21968444She couldn't post the article. She got this image from Twitter/Reddit/Facebook/wherever. She didn't make it herself. >>21968424lmaoIt was 99¢/bag a few weeks ago. We don't even eat chips but for that price, we're gonna eat some fucking chips.
>>21968444checked

>>21968648>"according to people familiar with the matter." x 4+iow, it's all made up and the points don't matter
>>21968648This sky is all subsidized gmo corn and seed oils. It didn't cost them shit. The article comes off as trying to garner pity for a billion dollar company that hates you>>21968671This also

>>21968424I wish Pringles would understand that I'm not paying $4 for one can either
>>21968424PepsiCo had a near monopoly and they fucked it up. Now people just buy brand store shit since you can buy two (or even three) bags for the same price.
>>21968806No store brands are like Doritos
>>21968818And doritos aren't worth 7$. So people buy something else.
>>21968785I will never understand you people who don't stock up on shelf stable, frozen or freezable food when it's on sale.The sale prices are the real prices. It's inflated the rest of the time. If you're paying $4 for a can of Pringles, you're overpaying by at least $2. Stop that. And for goodness sake, use coupons.
>>21968824I'm not paying $4 for pringles, they're too expensive.
>>21968458>sheStop posting that, you retarded incel pile of shit. Go shine your car keys.
>>21968832>car keysKeyfaggot got the she thing from me. I've been saying that here for a decade or more now. My son want even born yet when I started saying "she" on this board and he's gonna be 9 this year. Don't ever compare me to that piece of shit. I actually do some good on this board. >>21968829Good. If my timing isn't off, they're going to be on sale next week or the week after that anyway. I don't know how much, but Kellogg's hasn't put them on offer in a while and sale prices are cyclical.
>>21968444the medium size bags have been $5.50 for a while now. even pringles are $5.20 a can
>>21968824>biding your time so you can catch the right sale to stock up on piles of goyslopWait until you realize that you don't have to buy it at all.>b-but i need my potato dust seed oil crispy crunchies
>>21969489Tell me: where did that post say I buy Pringles? I'm just aware of prices. My family and I don't actually eat chips often at all. Maybe once or twice annually.
>>21968818True, but the shelves are full of alternatives to their other brands like Ruffles and Tostitos, and it's strange that they think they can charge a premium.
>>21969475>even pringles are $5.20 a canThe party size cans are $3. The regular size cans are $2.50.
>>21969616>prices for a store located in nowhere OhioOhio is dirt cheap across the board. I felt rich when I had to stop in Columbus a couple years back.Would have been better to show a price from an actual city.
Seeing this thread after buying 4 bags of doritos is really funny to me. All of their bags are priced at 4.25 for 9oz bag. Saw this deal while doing a bit of online shopping, essentially a buy one get one free deal, but x2. They have all of the standard flavors, the only one NOT included in this sale was cool ranch, my favorite flavor. But knowing I got a total of 4 bags that will last me two weeks or so for 8.50 feels good.
No sympathy for paddlers of junk food, may PepsiCo go bankrupt.
>>21968818I just don't buy Doritos anymore. I get generic cheetos and kettle chips from Aldi because theyre like $2/bag. Fuck name brands.
Is it just me or did doritos start putting less seasoning on their chips a few years ago?
>>21969631Why would I try to intentionally look up some expensive city like a baiting shitposter instead of just showing the local prices I pay? It's not my fault you live in an overpriced shithole.
>>21969683Indeed.
>>21969669Peddling junk food; that's a paddlin'.
>>21969685yes it is
>>21969637So you're eating like 2 bags of this trash per week? Please fix your eating habits.
>>21968444theyre now priced the same as higher end snacks so are having to compete with higher quality shit AND lower quality shit at the same timetldr execs are retarded like usual and proof that nepotism runs the world
>>21969683they are and its really noticable
>>21969719Well, if it's my fault, you probably deserved it. I wouldn't have done that to you for no reason.
>>21969616
>>21969762>options from $6.99 - $19.47That's a shipped item, not available in-store. The prices on shipped food items are always retardedly inflated.
i like how all articles complaining about prices are c*lifornia pricesi live in the c*lifornia of the midwest and even the prices here are no where near as bad
>>21969780They should really use Hawaii prices if they want maximum shock and engagement.
im going to use this thread to complainthe new Baked line of lays and cheetos isnt good, they taste worse, and theres not as much flavor dust as the regular ones. dont buy.
this thread reminds me that for the low price of $7000 you can buy a semi automatic chips production line on alibaba which produces around 50kg/h which equals around 170 bags of chips. At $3 a bag that's $500/h, so it basically pays for itself! (if you eat around 3000-4000 bags of chips)
>>21969762>larger pack has a WORSE price per weightthey have started doing this shit last few years bc they know people just buy bigger ones assuming it's cheaper in more bulk even if it aint. you could have got 2 of the 5.2oz ones for less than the price of a single 6.8oz.... retarded
>>21968424how have they gutted all the quality from Doritos and they’re still that expensive
>>21969841I like them, the white cheddar ones. The other ones aren’t good. I really love the new potato and onion flavors of the baked lays tho. baked lays have been my go to chip for almost 10 years. something has happened over the last few months where the regular baked lays have inconsistent salt where half the chips have no salt and the other half have so much salt you can’t eat them
>>21968424>$7 What the fuck? The family size is on sale for like 4 to 5 dollars all the time
>>21970001>3000-4000 bags of chipsThe average American does that every quarter
>>21968424$7? They cost $2.33 USD for a 300g bag in my cunt.
>>21968424Pepsico needs to bring back the wasabi doritos and also bring the doritos late noght roasted chicken to the US if you're reading this pepsico i am a SHAREHOLDER AND I DEMAND YOU COMPLY WITH MY REQUEST
>>21968818Idk man aldis have an 11 oz bag of fake doritos for $2. I used to inhale those when they were disgustingly cheaper at $0.75 but now I’m not buying it. Still cheaper than real doritos.
>>21968648>Nobody wanted to be responsible for a short-term revenue blow dealt by slashing prices, according to the people, who asked not to be named discussing internal matters. So the company tried anything else that might lure customers: promotions, shrinkflation. None of it worked.gee non of it worked? Screwing people didnt work? We didnt bend over for these asshats and thank them for the shrinkflation?Anons. we need to go buy some doritos. billionaires need our help now more than ever
