At the current price of donuts, the phrase “I’ll bet you dollars to donuts…” Means the opposite of what it once did.

Edited to correct the saying.

    Before COVID, it was nothing to run into Duncan and get three or four dozen donuts for the office. They were less than $9 a dozen.

    They currently want $25 for a dozen at my local Duncan. We used to have donuts at work all the time. Now it’s like once a year.

    I guess they’re making too much money off overpriced coffee to bother with making donuts.
