A couple of years ago, in a move that surprised some industry watchers, Starbucks cut the price of bags of coffee sold in grocery stores by 10% (equivalent to about $1 per bag). Starbucks acknowledges that it will lose profit in the short run, but believes it will gain more grocery store customers in the long run. Starbucks and their closest competitor, Dunkin Donuts, estimate the following payoff matrix for their pricing strategies for the next quarter.

Dunkin' Donuts Price High Price Low Price High 80,90 90,80 Starbucks Price Low 75, 110 65,90
