      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!
