Holy expensive Dunkin' Donuts!
I went into Dunkin Donuts with the idea of doing something "nice" for my co-workers; bringing in an afternoon treat of munchkins or something. Not taking note of the price and having the lady load up a box of 25, I gasped when she said almost six bucks!!
Ah well, good intentions went right out the window and I'm taking those babies back to my OWN family tonight
Am I a total creep for NOT giving them to intended? (No one knew I was going to get them).

I can't stand their lattes. They taste so watered down. I said this in the Starbucks thread a few weeks ago.
Not only do DD lattes taste bad, they are just as expensive as Starbucks lattes which are so much better tasting.

Re: Holy expensive Dunkin' Donuts!
Their raising prices hit me when I tried to buy a Donut in Penn Station. It was like $1.10 or $1.20.
Donuts over a dollar now.

The price of flour has gone through the roof. It's like this all over for baked goods. My usual bagel went from $2 to $2.50

Re: Holy expensive Dunkin' Donuts!
Bagel prices soared because of the price of cream cheese.
My local bagel shop raised their prices of bagels slightly. But the price of a bagel with cream chese is up almost a dollar.

I normally don't buy baked goods too often because I can't eat them without viscious side effects, but I was floored! Maybe my perception of things is skewed but the price of living is completely out of control. Between gas, utilities, food, etc., it's nuts! Didn't help that I got a pretty crap raise today AND got screwed out of my bonus

Re: Holy expensive Dunkin' Donuts!
You are lucky!! 1 dozen donuts at DD costs $8 here in Texas. Each individual franchise sets their own prices and because there are only 2 in the entire DFW metroplex.

or if you get the $7.50 for 50 its like .15 a piece which isnt bad considering donuts are now $1 each...
plus i clip the coupons out of the pennysaver for buy 25($6.) get 25 free
