I found a number of foods and drinks I’d honestly buy again, as I detail in “9 of My Favorite Groceries to Buy at the Dollar Store.” But I also found some products that will never again…

Considering the rising cost of living in the United States, that kind of reduction naturally raises a question: How exactly did they do it?
