That Walmart has been raising prices on everybody since Covid started? I remember half and half jumping from 4 bucks a half gallon to $5.68 overnight. Soda $5 bucks a 12 pack to $7.69 etc.....
In pursuit of total honesty, I'm ballparking the price rise but I'm within a few cents either way and now gonna raise them some more. Hmmmjmm
Makes one think this whole tariff thing is but an excuse to bring back the unequality that existed from the 70's to late 20teens that was rectified by al the voter approved minimum wage hikes.
