I just bought some Campbells Vegetable soup for 99c at Target. Although normally they're about $1.49/can. [/quote] In the US your prices are much better than ours. I'm in Atlantic Canada, our prices are typically the highest in Canada for most items other than seafood. If I lived close to the boarder I'd be shopping in the US all the time. [/quote] That for sure cause Milk is ~4.50 for 4L in Ontario. [/quote]

1st thing I noticed, my wife and I have hardly changed anything about our buying and eating habits.
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.
