Is screwing you with that price .
In truth they are not paying $5.49 for those blueberries , chances are they are paying much less . On that lesser amount is what the 25% should be based on , not on the marked up price you pay .
And I have a feeling that is how the consumer will be screwed with higher prices .
I can’t prove that , but I highly suspect it .
