Them doubles vendors taking advantage of the rise in fuel about now, so are to the big supermarkets and business.

So gas gone up by 15%.
Doubles man want to raise they price by $1 from $4 to $5
If a double vendor sells 1000 doubles per day that means is an extra $1000 extra cash that vendor is getting.
The car used to transport the vendor from home to the location (where no rent is paid) prob uses $50 gas (with 15% increase in gas means that is now $57.50).
So doubles man paying $7.50 extra due to the increase in gas but yet he making $1000 extra for that $1 increase the vendors are planning to sell at.

Real Robbery here.

This goes the same for all big business and supermarkets that planning to increase their products by that said 15%.
You cannot increase the product by 15%. that is total nonsense. A delivery van delivers multiple products in one trip.
Example bread: Average price is $10, if that were to increase by 15% = $11.50
Bread delivery truck transports 3000 bread: Profit: 3000*1.15 = $3450
Said bread truck uses $400 diesel for transport: Considering the increase in diesel: Now uses $460 in fuel.
$3450-$60 = $3390 in total profit if KISS were to raise their prices against the increase in fuel.

Again Robbery and Total rip off.

Only exception that my give is Taxi fares:

Sando to P.O.S: $10 (not sure the present fee)
Taxi man can only transport a max of 5 people (if is dem big crown or 280c)
One trip up might cost taxi man $30: With the increase in fuel price now is $34.50 (Lets say $5)
Therefore this extra $5 in fuel will have to be absorbed by the passengers therefore an increase in fare of $1 is justified.

Not sure if those taxi fare calculations correct. Basically according to ur figures that taxi man buss...better he stay and apply for a food card.
