How much does a packet of Pop-Tarts cost in the USA? And how much does a packet of Reese's Peanut Buttercups cost?

I find this very suspicious.
First of all, the quantities you mentioned were the ones I was the most curious about[footnote]assuming that a "small pack" is one with three regular-sized cups[/footnote], though you're free to tell me about other quantities as well since I'm interested in that too. The reason I'm asking is that here in Sweden, a pack of four bags of Pop-Tarts (with two tarts in each bag) costs what amounts to $11.77 at current rates, and I want to know how big a rip-off that is. The Reese's cost at least $1.50.Xpwn3ntial said:It varies, really. A 4-pack of Pop Tarts costs $1.75 where I live but $2.50 in Chicago, at the least.
I think a small pack of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups costs $1.00-$1.50 just about anywhere in the U.S.
What sizes are we talking about? Quantity?
Why do you need to know?
that is a GIGANTIC rip-off I could get reese's 2 for a dollar half the time where I live, and pop tarts cost maybe a buck fifty.Queen Michael said:This was a Crowning Moment of Funny.

I completely forgot how many cups were in a pack, so there's that. There are also giant packs that have three rather large cups that go for $6.00[footnote]I think.[/footnote] or so in Chicago.Queen Michael said:First of all, the quantities you mentioned were the ones I was the most curious about, though you're free to tell me about other quantities as well since I'm interested in that too.

Well, to be fair I think Pop-Tarts have to be imported in some more expensive way since they're not offically launched here in Sweden. But yeah, it is more than they're wrth unless it's my favorite flavor or some new flavor that seems delicious. And the import thing is true of the peanut cups as well, but they're worth it.chiggerwood said:that is a GIGANTIC rip-off I could get reese's 2 for a dollar half the time where I live, and pop tarts cost maybe a buck fifty.Queen Michael said:This was a Crowning Moment of Funny.
