Yes, the prices of pretty much everything are up right now due to inflation…and apparently, that includes Halloween candy, as well.

Doh!

And a woman named Cam posted a video on TikTok and talked to viewers about the high prices of Halloween candy at her local Meijer store in Illinois.

Cam said, “I h**e to break it to the children but Halloween is not happening until the economy is ******* fixed.”

She then added, “What do you mean, $30.99 is a low price? For a ******* bag of candy!”

Cam said that Halloween candy at Walmart is cheaper at $22.99 but pointed out that it was only $15.99 last year.

She said, “That is so crazy. I just can’t believe Meijer had the audacity for this. I’m sorry, kids, like y’all are gonna be getting floss and number two pencils this year. I don’t know what to tell you. I’m so stressed out!”

Take a look at her video.

Now check out what people had to say about this.

One viewer sounds like they’re a little bit shady…

Another person said there’s no consistency or logic to prices anymore.

And this TikTokker said they know for a fact that candy manufacturers are raising prices.

That’s it! Halloween is cancelled!
