PASigAnyone Else Seeing Big Price Jumps In Things?
I don't know what is going on here. I know coffee crops had a bad year but this is crazy. Tariffs or tariff effect?
I've been buying Gevalia K-cups from Amazon for a few years now for work. At home I use a refillable K-cup adapter but at work I use the regular ones.
A box of 84 K-cups has ranged from roughly $29 to around $34 all this time. Went to reorder and they are now $50(!) a box. NOPE
My wife found me a box of Kirkland brand K-cups from Costco that's pretty decent and it was $40 for a box of 104.
Gevalia is Swedish so I'm not sure if this is just supply and demand or tariffs or what but a 47% increase in price is INSANE and I'm not paying that.

tatortoddI'm actually seeing a price reduction in my grocery bill, but that's all food of US origin so no tariffs. Mid-May, the US Bureau of Labor and Statitics released the
April 2025 consumer price index matches what I've personally seen:
quote:
The index for food, in contrast, fell 0.1 percent in April as the food at home index decreased 0.4 percent and the food away from home index rose 0.4 percent over the month.
I'm seeing price increases at Amazon, but most things on Amazon have tariff impacts as they're imported.
I was at Harbor Freight over the weekend and their prices seemed to have gone up, but their goods are mostly imported.
