This is a $1 dollar increase from what I was paying. But soon subscribers will be $15/month, then $20/month. I wonder how much of deezer's income actually goes to the artists.

At this point people should be posting things that HAVENT seen a price hike. Because if there are companies out there not jacking up their rates, they deserve a standing O.

Arizona Ice Tea. 99 cents a can for 20 years.

Cost Co. Hotdog and a drink is still 1.50.

Arizona ice tea is now $1.39 where I'm at in the midwest.

Even Cigarello's, which were always 99 cents as long as I can remember are now listed at $1.39 where I'm at.

This is at the discretion of your local vendors. Some places in my area stopped selling them altogether rather than raise the price. I think Arizona had to take the 99¢ branding off the can because it doesn't work in a lot of markets. Places in my area will have them as cheap as 79¢ but it's obviously a loss leader.

My nebula subscription hasn't gotten more expensive.

Good on Facebook! Right? That's what you're saying no?

Actually Facebook recently implemented a subscription service to remove ads.
