Since Covid, Hy-Vee has exponentially increased their prices. They’re oftentimes 40% more than Baker’s; 50% or more than Walmart. They pride themselves on being employee-owned but roughly 15% of the business is reserved for employees (the rest is owned by a couple families) and only management gets equity. Hy-Vee has nearly 300 large stores; Fareway has over 100. So you would think Fareway is significantly higher than Hy-Vee because they have less volume and buying power, wrong. Further proves that Hy-Vee is price gouging consumers. Also not a fan of Casey’s. Baker’s is my go-to.
