Stretchflation rises as prices outpace bigger package sizes
A new grocery trend called stretchflation sees products offered in larger quantities while prices rise disproportionately. Reported example includes Saputo sliced provolone at Costco expanding from 620g to 750g, yet costing over 15 dollars, a steep mark up. While rare now, stretchflation may spread as raw materials like sugar and cocoa remain costly and producers seek to preserve market share.
