Groceries were $100 more this week

The ice tea that I buy all the time. Jumped 2 bucks. It was 1.49 now it's 3.49. Crazy

Fair point upscale grocers like Trader Joe's prices have not increased. High quality food like grass fed meat is the same or lower. While most goods at regional markets show noticeable price increases.

It WAS grass fed Angus very lean.It normally is not that damn high though lol

LITER IS FRENCH FOR GIVE ME MY FUCKING COLA!

what kind of idiot would want lean fucking beef?

I had to pay $3.99 for a 20 oz bottle of milk at QT last week for my lunch box.

I wanted some milk for my lunch, and I didn't have time to go anywhere else or I'd be late for work.

I told the cashier I could get 2 gallons of milk at Walmart for about the same price.

Highway robbery!

are you a baby calf?

ditch the milk chico!

the prices have gone up at restaurants here for sure.

lol

You cruisin for a bruisin Daddio

And they have more customers, more profit from all the restaurants being closed..

Sorry, they're all shut here in the UK, I was thinking US was the same.

I am waiting Mama! i Love youuu

This idiot

Listen to me.If I am making burgers or meatballs etc of course I get it with some fat in it for juiciness. But when I use it for other things like the homemade vegetable soup I make etc?I dont want a fatty beef.
And I assume that HALF A COW You bought was just the fat part? Lol

Yes baby i know lol i jus pokin at you

The $1200 check covers 12 months of inflation !

I am listening to that book right now through loyal books for free.

I am enjoying it great pleasure.

That's ok. You will understand shortly
Denial is still a river in Egypt.

Good thing the farmers are throwing away all that food and food production companies are closing.

Our governments and leaders really must care so much for us.

Yup, same at Costco. Bought our typical stuff 92 bucks more!

Nah I'm with you. I've been waiting and preparing, just trying to keep 'normal' for as long as I can.

Love you too :-D

Yes, I am in fact a baby calf.

And I'm prepared to kick your door in for some milk with my lunch.

Don't forget to store water....lots of water.

i got ur milk u lil hoe!

Great post! Glad to see we have some well read people here.

Noticed it too.When shopping the local market with a captive audience,prices always higher anyhow.Told wife,ignore the prices,get what we need.This isnt the time to bargain shop.

Smart and Final only a few items higher,surprisingly most were pretty normal.

And low volumes of people.The sheep are still trying to bargain shop wally and krogers.

Look at wholesale market price of beef, pork, corn, oats, sugar all trading more than 20% lower than January,


Beef 01/10 $147.60 04/22 $116.30 (feeder cattle )

Pork 01/23 $68.5 04/22 $47.30 (lean hogs)

Oats 01/23 $316.50 04/22 $278.50

Corn 01/23 $393.75 04/22 $319.75

Sugar 01/23 $14.57 04/22 $10.05

Outside of some shortages of processed foods, somewhere between the wholesale and the grocery store there is significant price gouging.

Greed will never let a good crisis go to waste.
