๐Stores 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.โ . ๐๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐๐ญ๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐๐๐ข๐๐๐ญ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐ (๐๐๐) ๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ค๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ@๐ญ๐ก๐๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ข๐๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐.๐๐จ๐ฆ @kamalpillai_realtor . . #ValentinesDayCandy #LastMinuteShopping #PriceDiscrepancy #ConsumerConcerns #RetailPricing #ProcrastinatingRomantics #InflationImpact #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
