๐Ÿ‘‰Stores capitalize on last-minute Valentine's Day shoppers, pricing special-edition candies at a premium to clear out remaining stock. Procrastinating romantics may be in for a bitter surprise as prices of themed candies like Sour Patch Kids and Haribo are significantly higher than their regular counterparts. Veronica Fletcher, co-founder of Pantry and Larder, discovered the marked price difference. For instance, a Valentine's heart-shaped box of Sour Patch Kids costs $3.96, compared to $1.24 for the regular version. Retailers, including Walmart, are investigating these discrepancies. Consumer advocates express concern, questioning whether this is an exploitation of consumer expectations amid inflation.โœ… . ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐ž๐ฒ ๐ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐Š๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐†๐“๐€ ๐‘๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐Ÿ (๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•) ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‘-๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ๐Ÿ” ๐„๐ฆ๐š๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ค๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ@๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐œ๐š๐ง๐š๐๐ข๐š๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @kamalpillai_realtor . . #ValentinesDayCandy #LastMinuteShopping #PriceDiscrepancy #ConsumerConcerns #RetailPricing #ProcrastinatingRomantics #InflationImpact #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
