Price increase justified?

Today, PENNY announced that it is drastically increasing the prices of some items. For example, fruit yogurt was previously priced at €1.19, but is now priced at €1.56.

Mozzarella previously 89 cents, now 1.55 euros

Maaasdam cheese previously 2.49 euros, now 4.84 euros

Vienna sausages previously 3.10 euros, now 6.01 euros.

The reason given for this price increase is that it supports climate protection.

The cost of fertilizers is taken into account. The health of farmers must be supported because of pesticides, etc.

It is not yet known whether other discounters will follow suit.

But where will this lead if food prices skyrocket?

Wouldn’t be surprised now, moneymaking has become a trend.An action that doesn’t go at all.Encourage food?Everything has risen because of the energy Habeck and now again this is wrong.Penny should be avoided.

The action takes a week. You can go to net.

Price increase justified?

Each trader has the right to offer goods at the prices he considers appropriate. It doesn’t need more justification.

But where should this lead if food prices are so high?

This is not for “the food prices”, but for a special action.

may sound evil now – but at least once we learn to appreciate food again – and I’m also talking about myself

You just hear what you want. View notification until the end.

This is a kind of demonstration for a week. The higher revenues are also donated.

You should first learn to read and understand then you would know the penny for a week requires the actual dietary costs to show what healthy food should be worth to us.

That’s not true at all. Jesus.

These are only nine products where, for example, only one week is shown, which would actually be the actual costs.

There’s a lot of… But it’s been a problem for a long time: food must be cheap – how and where and at what price does not matter, otherwise the home cinema plant 7.1, the plasma television, the First Class 3 weeks of Maldives in summer and winter Thailand, is no longer enough a “standard” vehicle with min. 150 hp – there you are already in the lower social area… etc… It becomes interesting when comparing the spending on food, compared to the other spending, International… Gives a little insight into what importance we give to our diet – the Spotify-Abo has a higher priority, such as bread…

Choose the environment when purchasing. Because foods have from their production to your shoppingsocial and environmental impact, which are not reflected in the sales price. If you want to fix it, the money costs – the so-calledcosts. These haveUniversity of GreifswaldandTechnical University of Nurembergfor our selected products scientifically calculated. The following factors were taken into account in the calculation:

If you had the trouble to understand the background, that would have been something…

The difference is donated by the way! It is a one-week action!

And perhaps also to think about the “Geiz is horny” mentality.

But the latest smartphone, the holiday trip or the most beautiful flat screen TV are probably more important. And so here people jump in rows on this question that suggests what is not meant… shame!

Hopefully, this leads to the fact that you learn to appreciate food again, not as much meat and sausage, the quality rises and not so much lands in the garbage.

Price increase justified?

Today, a message came that PENNY raises prices extremely in some articles.Example: Fruit yoghurt has cooked € 1.19 now €1.56.

One reason less to enter this i.d. very chaotic / with confusing product range

I’m trying yawflation (e.g. in case of a reduction in the content of the packaging and the “possible” simultaneous price increase) as far as I can handle it.

If we not only let ourselves be triggered by the rushing campaigns, we find that this is a 1-week demonstration of how high prices should actually be and the increased proportion does not come to the group but to the farmers, for example. But pussy is more fun, is simpler and you feel similar to the Barma-slapping: kick in and feel good, wasn’t it…?!

I’m sure I won’t let myself be triggered by any rushing campaigns. I have only seen disproportionate price increases in goods for months – especially in the basic food sector, which is guaranteed not to be explained by the war in Ukraine, wage increases and increase in energy/transport costs.

And Penny also has a “cheap” advertising campaign.

Why are some of the foods of such poor quality?

It is mainly because many consumers are not willing to pay for quality. You may remember that the Mars range disappeared from the supermarket shelves, for example, just recently, because the chains were not willing to pass the overprices of the manufacturer to the customers.

Moreover, prices have often been falling for a long time. And if something seems too expensive, I won’t buy it.

Only with this one-week action is to be taken attentively and with very, very few products, namely exactly 9 products that PENNY was looking for.

Our foods have social and environmental impacts from production to sale, e.g. through the emission of nitrogen and greenhouse gases or the use of pesticides. These effects have not yet been reflected in the sales price, but our society indirectly costs money – for example, because they promote climate change and thus extreme weather events, for which we are all paying with increased tax or insurance funds. If these costs are added to the normal cost of production of food, the “true costs” are added.

If you can open a barrel now, it means that you have not dealt with the action at all!

The food companies want to earn more money and increase prices more than they need.
