Theft is up? Raise prices to compensate.

Increased headwind on distribution trucks? Raise prices to compensate.

Mars is in retrograde? Raise prices to compensate.

Supply stabilized and reduced our costs on goods? Raise prices to compensate.

Its not exactly a threat if you're going to do it anyway!
