I'm sure this is a coincidence... [View all]
Just returned from the grocery store and the cat food I buy is three cents cheaper this week and prices change on Thursday. It had been raised to $0.88 back during the pandemic and has been that price for nearly four years(Wal-Mart and Publix).
Even though much of the price increases were not warranted, most people don't believe the companies will lower them significantly(if at all) because people didn't stop buying sodas and chips at those prices. The demand is still there so there would be no motivation for lowering prices. Others have opined that you'd see price drops the second a (R) won given that the increases were "spiteful" in the first place and meant to affect working folks' voting habits.
Check the prices when you go to the store this week. This is going to be interesting.
