I've heard that orange juice goes for like $11 a gallon in some places lately, so gramps must be ballin rich!

grampa: fuck gold or crypto, i am going OJ

edit: btw, gambling in OJ futures is quite a thing, i think there is even a movie about it

Looking good Billy Ray!

This made me curious so I checked. A Gallon on OJ cost $10 at my local chain store. It's the only grocery store for a while so they get away with a lot. What does it normally cost? I'm not a fan and don't think I've ever bought orange juice

how? wasn't the whole thing about orange juice that the US just had too many danged oranges so they started advertising it is the breakfast drink? shouldn't it be dirt cheap?

I forget where I saw that online, but it was somewhere here in the USA. I can't say I've personally seen OJ at that price, but honestly I haven't ever shopped for OJ, so I dunno.

Still, somewhere between name brand and price gouging and shit, I don't doubt it a bit. Wherever I saw that posted, it was a photo including the shelf price tag.

$10.99 a fucking gallon!

Someone posted a Canadian store selling it for that much due to tariffs.

This was before the tariffs actually.
