  • Both Come and Pepsi doubled - tripled their prices in the time between 2020 and 2023.

    In 2019 (in my area) you could get a 2 liter of soda for $0.79-$1.00. Non-sale price was $1.49. A 12 pack of cans was $2-$2.50 on sale with a none-sale price of $4.

    2 liters now are “on sale” for $2-$3 each and non-sale price is $3-$3.50.

    Cans sale price is $4 at minimum and non-sale price is $7.99–8.99 depending on the store.

    I have significantly cut back on my diet soda intake as a result, so i guess there is that?

    To put another way, in the best of times in 2019 I could buy a 5x12 pack of cans for $10. Today I would have to pay $20-$45 for the exact same product depending on if it was on sale or not.

    When our economy finally falters, these companies will be the first to scream for bailouts and other nonsense.

    Like dude, just go back to pre-pandemic pricing.
