In 2011 the Weekly Universe reported the downsizing of Planters Deluxe Mixed Nuts from 21 oz to 18.25 oz. Even so, the Santa Monica, California Vons supermarket kept the same price -- $9.99.
Over the next four years, the price on Planters Deluxe Mixed Nuts increased to $13.98 -- occasionally reverting to a "sale" price of $9.99. Then just last month, it was downsized yet again -- from 18.25 to 15.25 oz. -- yet still priced at $13.98!
Only four years ago, Planters Deluxe Mixed Nuts cost $9.99 for 21 oz -- now it's $13.98 for 15.25 oz. That's an approximately 92% price increase in four years -- a nearly doubling of the price!
