The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Huge, Beautiful Price Hikes: How Trump Made Your Local Candy Aisle Scarier Than A Haunted House...

Who remembers this whopper? "A vote for Trump means your groceries will be cheaper!" ~Lyin Don, 11/04/24

"Halloween candy prices jumped 15%, leaving families feeling the pinch"

"Anything that gets to the store has to get there on a truck, which runs on diesel, and the rising cost of aluminum - due to trade disputes with Canada - increased the cost for wrappers,
which are then passed on to the customers."

"Paying $35 for a bag of stale candy corn is called winning! Thank God Donald J. Trump is bankrupting us for our own protection while he and his family grift billions!! It's called winning!" ~LurkerMom
