[quote:Anonymous Coward 20632484:MV8xOTk3NjA1XzMzNTU4MjcxXzYxNEY3NEIz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 16674316:MV8xOTk3NjA1XzMzNTU3OTk2XzM1OUUzMzI5] [quote:Macraider:MV8xOTk3NjA1XzE2RkFBOENC] Wow.... We went to Costco tonight in Northern California, and the choice beef was $19.99 per POUND !! Also, everything we normally buy has gone up by at least -$1.00 - The organic whole chickens were 2 for $20 2 months ago, and NOW they are $30 to $35 for same 2 chickens!! NOW, food for a family of four is costing $375 every 2 weeks (no food stamps here). Our weekly food bill has doubled this year!! Inflation is before our eyes. I had an anxiety attack shopping. I am very particular in purchasing REAL WHOLESOME FOODs for my family. I no longer buy any corn products because of GMOs. We stay away from high fructose corn syrup. I read the back of everything I buy and I find myself putting most of the food back on the shelf because of the junk in it. My business that I have had for over 23 years is failing. For the first time in my life, I am very worried and concerned. I am making major changes to my life asap because I do not see any other way to survive. I take pride in taking care of myself and family. I do not want to go onto the governments tit for support. Is anyone else seeing the changes that I am seeing or struggling like I am struggling?? My spouse wants us to sell everything we own and move to IDAHO. Spouse wants us to prepare for a complete financial and government collaspe and he wants to grow and raise our own food. What do you think (your opinion is welcomed)?? :alone: [/quote] Your store is ripping you off. I can get chicken for 69 cents to 75 cents a pound here in San Diego. Fresh Ground 20% hamburger is still under Two Dollars a pound. (I buy more chicken than hamburger and spend less than two dollars a day for food for me and the wife) All produce in San Diego is cheap, as this is farm area. You can get ears of corn, 5 for a dollar in season. Other vegetables are equally cheap. Why do you pay such outrageous prices?????? [/quote] Corn in the Northwest just a couple of years ago were 10/1.00. I thought last year at 5/1.00 that the sale was coming at any time it never did. Next year will be a lot worse, breaking us with inflation has been going on for decades, but now wages are not rising unless you work for some sort of city, state, county, federal governments.
