Like Trump would care. He doesn't drink coffee and if it doesn't affect him, he does give a GD. hlthe2b Oct 2025 #2

Marshall's, TJ Maxx, Home Goods have lower prices - mostly on brands you've never heard of, but every now and then I luck out and find some decent stuff. Just stocked up on a few bags of Bones Coffee I got from Home Goods.

But, it sure as hell is affecting me. I rarely buy expensive coffee drinks, but my reliable decent quality packaged coffee is up at least 100% over what I paid a year ago. While likely to go stale--even while vacuum-packed, I did stock up some time back.

And I’ve noticed a bag of Starbucks used to be $7 or $8 bucks. Now it’s $11. I bought a bag of McDonald’s buy one for $12, get one free. I have to say it sucks compared to Starbucks though.
