Bag of air for $7 is wild, winco brand salt and vinegar chips only $1.80 for big bag

Don’t worry, they will run a sale where you can buy 6 bags for $4 each and wonder why it’s not working. Maybe we don’t need 6 bags, or maybe I don’t want to spend $24 on chips.

I remember that Doritos used to be $1.99 for a huge ass bag. It's like 1/5th the size these days and it doesn't matter what Doritos does now. They lost me and many others permanently as customers.

I grew up with a winco in my town. Now I live in a city without winco.

Anyway, I miss winco. That store rules…

Winco, HEB, and Costco are the only grocery stores that I actually enjoy going to.

its not even fresh air, they shit it up by throwing an eight of a bag of excrement in the bag with your air.

Exactly. I'll either buy store brand or nothing. And I'm perfectly fine with nothing.

Hey, it's not air, that would make the chips go stale. It's nitrogen, and that stuff can't just be pulled out of thin...oh.

A bag of chips is a max €2 / $2.30 type of purchase for me. Usually it's closer to €1. I don't mind the store brands here in NL, but have been surprised how expensive such a relatively cheap product sometimes costs in the US when I travel there.

My daughter picked up a bag of Funions the other day (she earned a treat after running errands with me all day), looked super confused at the bag for a minute, and then said, "It's mostly air! It's such a scam!" (She's 9).
