Sticker Shock at the Grocery: Goodbye Generics

Doing my usually Saturday morning rounds: First Costco for the necessities, then the grocery store for the few luxurious items that are better or have a better selection from Stop & Shop; bananas, red bliss potatoes, cereal.

I buy some cereal at Costco, but one of my little luxuries is Stop & Shop "Nutty Nuggets." They are a generic version of Grapenuts.

I adore Grapenuts, but at $3.49 per box, there's no way, especially when Nutty Nuggets is $2.00 per box.

Today Nutty Nuggets wasn't there.  Neither was the store-brand All-Bran, Total, or other generics.  There was a store-brand Cheerios (Oaty-Os), Store-brand Frosty Flakes, but that was about it for generics in the cereal aisle.
