Picnic cheese boards?

In our Independent they have these faux-wood cheeseboards wrapped in plastic in the deli with 4 crackers, a handful of walnuts and cranberries/raisins, then what I assume is off cuts of Brie, blue, and some sliced cheese I think is a deli alpine/cooked pressed cheese. I’ve been working nights after a breakup trying to keep up on bills, and at the end of each shift I’d stop and get one for half price, an EXCELLENT deal for half of 7$. I’d go to my garden and for a bike ride and that would be my food for the day.

Last week I was surprised that the full price had almost doubled, now 12$, and the portions were smaller. Three crackers, two dried apricots, and the weight of the cheese made it no longer worth it even for those on the turn at 50% (legit on the turn - crackers get wet; the cheeses aren’t properly refrigerated in the open display for 4-5 days but beggars can’t be choosers, right?). 7$ for the old ones at that size no longer made sense.

Today? I stopped in just to see if a new week meant new boards - some are left since last Thursday. And the new ones were 14$. In the span of two weeks a SMALLER product is now double the original price. They look MISERABLE compared to what I got before and they’re 14$.

So sardines this week it is 🤟🥴

Anyone else see their store change to-go and deli items? The ones with the big black circular stickers?
