Enshittification will continue as long as people still buy their shit there.
The only language these fuckers understand is money. Dont buy their shit and it will turn around quickly.
But if you keep going there, and keep going with the new shot they come up with they will keep doing this shit until you stop.
How many people are buying 24 packs of Coca-Cola at $14 when it used to be $7 just five years ago.
I've cut way back and only buy during sales. It's not that I can't afford it. It's that if I do continue to buy, then they'll start charging $21/case. The price will keep going up until people react.
What is it going to take for people to just refuse to pay these prices?
I actually quit drinking soda because of that. I was spending 20-30 bucks a week on Coke, and when it hit me that I could just not drink coke and save almost $1500 more a year, it was an easy choice.
