A Scary Expensive Halloween
It’s gonna be another pricey Halloween under Bidenomics!
I’m Tomi Lahren, more next.
Candy prices, like everything else in the Joe and Kamala inflation nation, are soaring ahead of the Halloween holiday.
Americans are projected to drop 3.5 billion dollars on candy this Halloween season and we will be paying more for less.
In 2023, candy prices rose about 7.5% from the previous year and 2024 average prices are on pace to be even higher.
A report from Wells Fargo shows the increase in price for candy and chocolate products is due in part to cocoa beans which is expected to cut production by 14%.
Take that and add in Bidenflation, and your trick-or-treat might look a little more tricky with not so much treat.
Deal gurus suggest buying bulk and opting for items that don’t include chocolate as a main ingredient.
While American politicians can’t control the cocoa bean crops in West Africa where 70% of the product is grown, there’s no doubt American consumers are being punished in EVERY lane of that grocery store, not just the chocolate section!
You can’t blame that one on the cocoa beans!
