A ~~1-lb~~ 16oz (mixed up my stupid freedom units) bag of whole bean coffee usually hovers about that (more if you get something fancy). I think the tariffs fucked coffee prices more than anything.

I think the tariffs fucked coffee prices more than anything.

At the grocery store I frequent, I watched the price of bulk coffee jump from $8/pound to $11/pound right after those tariffs hit. Then my dipshit "not a right winger" coworker came in and started bragging about some trump tariff rebate check that I never heard of

Yeah, I can only buy it now when it goes down to $9 on sale...which is still an obscene price for something that was like $4 2-3 years ago.

It's also the fancy places have started doing 12oz instead of 16oz so hard to even get a pound and it goes more than 1lbs bags used too.

Surprisingly my fancy Costa Rican coffee has stayed about steady in price. It went out of stock for months when tariffs hit, but quickly went back to normal pricing.

I still stock up whenever I'm down there because it's like 1/2 to 1/4 the price.
