Dynamic pricing may include logic to adjust price in response to imbalances between supply and demand which could result in “Surge pricing”, but to call it surge pricing is to focus on the most negative aspect to the consumer. It also depends on how prominently changes in demand influence the change in price compared to other price drivers and whether there are robust caps in place to prevent usury level pricing.

Cost of groceries has increased 36.5% since 2019 #bcwewannaknow Some items have even hit a 40% increase - this is NATIONAL average, folks. Here in San Diego, we are up to 13% higher (YIKES people) and if you guessed that the good stuff (eggs, milk, cheese, rice potatoes, chicken, beef, tofu and vegetables) are at the +40% mark - you'd be correct #futureworktrends Full WSJ Article: https://lnkd.in/gY2Ms2VC

11.3% of consumer spending is going towards food. This is a 30 year high when you look at total food spending, but the number is misleading. In 1991 when consumer spending reached 11.4% it was driven by the high cost of groceries. In 1991, Groceries made up over 7% of food spending and Dining Out made up 4%. In 2022 those numbers are virtually equal - at about 5.6% each. But the combined total is causing people to buy less because they are finally tired of food companies continually raising their prices. In this The Wall Street Journal article, The Hershey Company and Kraft Heinz have both reported a slow down in transactions. This is on the heels of McDonald's reporting a Q4 decline in dining occasions forcing the CEO to acknowledge they have reached the ceiling on price increases. Consumers are buying food less frequently yet that expense is making a bigger cut into their disposable income. Which means discretionary spending is most likely a victim. Is your brand feeling it? If so, how is your brand competing? What are you doing to become indispensable to your customer? And what are you doing make sure you are on the shopping list? https://lnkd.in/ezXYSfru #consumerspending #consumerbehavior #fmcg #cpg #diningout #foodcosts #inflation

The convenience fee Sometimes it’s obvious, like the $1 that you get charged for using an ATM or a credit card, and it’s simply not worth the hassle to walk a few blocks. And sometimes it’s not, like the cost we all pay for the conveniently wrapped fruits or vegetables at the market–wrapped in plastic that will not degrade in our lifetimes. The convenience fee might be the time you spend at the drive-through at Starbucks, instead of walking inside, or, heaven forbid, brewing your own coffee at home. Or choosing media to consume because it’s right there, not a few clicks away… But the convenience fees, whether metaphorical or actual, keep rising. It turns out that a life lived conveniently isn’t always a better one. The cost of convenience ends up being too high. with thanks to #sethgodin #slowselling #slowdowntospeedup #realvalue
