My colleague Beth Gooch says she saw a watermelon for $7.99 at the grocery. The only ones I ever buy are the tiny sugarbells at the farmers market, usually for a buck or two, and I haven’t gotten one this year. But $7.99 sounds crazy. Has anyone looked at the farmers market prices for watermelons this year? I wonder if it’s a transportation cost increase or if it’s been a bad watermelon season.
