1890’s coke? Sure.
Coke pods, finally
Little baggies of coca cola, 75 cents each, get em while they’re hot!
With todays price…you’re selling at a loss dude.
In my mind a bottle was still like 1,50, turns out those bastards are already at twice that over here.
A bottle is about 1,20 here in Germany including tax, but excluding pfand
I could’ve expected that, my wife takes zoo trips in Germany with a coworker and they also get loads of grocery’s.
Just last weekend she brought a bunch of monster energy, 77 cents a piece. I pay €2,50 for a single can over here.
She also bought kraken rum and a bottle of aberfeldy whiskey for me which were roughly €7 cheaper each.
When i was 16 i worked at Albert Heijn and they stopped selling coca cola because the distributor wanted to make them €1,35 compared to the current €1,15. Albert Heijn said “nope, stop or we will stop selling”. The shelves were empty for a couple weeks and then miraculously filled with coca cola for €1,35 and not a word was spoken about it.
But i stumbled on a mini documentary on yt about German grocery stores (specifically the huge ones apparently) and how they are losing money. So you might end up paying a similar price as us some time in the near future.
Could you maybe try to find that documentary/video essay? That sounds really interesting
Also prices already went up dramatically since 2020. I used to only pay around 1€ for a bag of chips. Now it’s double that
2,50€ for a single can of Monster Energy is almost service area level pricing.
It should be this: https://youtu.be/ymxG4wOP7fk?si=fDyTv66EiVcToe44
It’s specifically about superstores tho, but i kinda zoned out somewhere along the video.
Tbh the price increases we’ve seen since then were pretty much a lot of the western society that dealt with it, there were resource issues and a lot of volatility in the market due to this covid ordeal.
I’m not dismissing the fact that those increases put a lot of stress on all of our finances.

That’s how they sell coca cola in Mexico
Same in Thailand.
Wait why in a bag? I can’t imagine a cup being more expensive.
Gotta make sure to leech as many phthalates into the drink as possible
There’s a broke diabetic out there who got a bag of burgers that is gonna wanna talk to you.

No, I’m not joking, coke causes more cancer than coke
Cocain doesn’t really cause cancer does it? It just destroys your heart and nostril. And your heart is resistant to cancer (since it won’t regenerate)
Also please start posting memes there. I’m running out of good memes to post there and don’t want this community to die
