Was a little surprised when updating prices for the quarter pound coffees (we only carry a limited selection of these around this time of year for gifts). None of them are the same price as the last time they were offered, but about half went up in price while the rest went down. Most are within 15 cents.
We used to do single pot packets where it was the right amount of coffee that you could just open the packet, dump it into your filter for a 10 cup auto drip pot, and get a good pot of coffee out of it, but 10 cup auto drip isn't as dominant a format as it used to be and the packaging got so expensive that I couldn't in good conscience sell that for what I'd need to charge. Given the public embrace of pod based coffees, however, there's apparently a market for obscenely overpriced coffee.
