First let's find how much Jose bought each bag of peanuts for. Divide $375 by 750 bags of peanuts.

375/750 = 0.5

Each bag of peanuts was $0.50. Since Jose intends to sell each bag back for $0.15 more, add $0.50 and $0.15.

0.50 + 0.15 = 0.65

Jose will charge
\boxed {\$0.65}
for each bag of peanuts.
