The 2nd thing I noticed was the crazy incrases we have had in prices. 1 can Campbells Vegetable soup was listed as $0.89 We now pay $2.19 for the same can. Fresh Haddock Fillets were $3.99lb. Now $7.99lb. 4 litres of Skim Milk was $4.59...now $7.59. 1 loaf of whole wheat bread was $.99...now $2.99. Fresh Green Pepper was $1.99lb...now $3.99lb. Canned tomato juice was $0.99 a can...now $2.29 a can. Obviously there was waaaaay more on the recipt, but I just can't believe the inflation. I'm sure many people have had to stop buying items the are used to buying, and change their life styles a great deal. I have not gotten to that point yet, but I'm feeling the pinch. It sucks. Changes are needed. [/quote] You need to take a pic of the receipt, go buy the same products, take another pic, and put the pics all over the place. [/quote]
