I love this subreddit.

Mere hours before we got this latest installment in the recurring "my rent increase was totally unfair and unsustainable" theme, a bunch of people on another post were trying to explain why a $35 can of potato chips at Hudson Greene Market was totally reasonable.

I dont think anyone actually tried to argue that it was reasonable to pay $35 for potato chips. Some of us did point out that the price was BETTER than what is charged for the same tin elsewhere in the US, like they retail for $40 in NYC, if you can find them. That's it.

Fair enough, although I think the fact that anyone (not you in particular) has a non-sarcastic conversation about whether $35 is a comparatively good price for a non-pallet sized amount of potato chips in this area lends itself to my point.
