Default If you use Cooper's canned kits....

I just heard from the horses mouth that Cooper's canned kits are going up in price about 25%! Stock up now, because once the price goes up, many stores will decide not to carry them any more. I will carry them but if no one buys them at the new price I will be forced to drop them as well. Cooper's makes the best canned kit but when they are more expensive than a kit from scratch, no one will buy them.

Keeping you informed.

And you already pay so much for them now. Even at your normal prices its can be nearly double the price we pay for them in Australia for certain kits.

I can go to the supermarket and pay

$6.50US for the basic white can
$8.50US for the international range can

The brewmaster ones cost us more in the range of $11-13US.

I wonder if our prices will increase too or its just your imports??

I am sure it has to do with the exchange rate.
