We really need a law that says any device you own cannot show you ads and any "recommendations" or promotions stuff from the company itself must be one setting to disable. And it cannot be tied to maintaining an active subscription or anything else they may think up.

If you pay money for a device, in itself it can't show you ads. Services and apps you install, may.

BJ's house brand. I assume it has mostly to do with the price of diesel. Coka Cola prices vary with diesel prices.

Since my last grocery trip: beef is at record highs, worse than the pandemic. Egg beaters (100% inflation in 11 months) and Hot Pockets (50% inflation, same time period) are at record prices BJ's bottled water went up from $3.50 to $4, first increase I've seen Soda products are are almost record highs, around $8.75 ish. Record high was when diesel was super high, and was $9.50. now, 15 years ago, same store, it was regularly $2. an average loaf of bread is almost at $4.- 15 years ago it was breaking $1.
