59 cents for one lemon? Come on joe....post your outrageous prices on food

One of my favorite foods is Alaskan King Crab. Normally buy it once or twice a year at Christmas or my birthday with prices running $20-$25 a pound at Sam's club.

This past Christmas it was over $65 dollars a pound. Needless to say I didn't buy that.

Since then, It has come down some but still $42 a pound.

Internet sites(ship overnight) it's $99 a pound.

When a manger fks up so badly when running his department you have to wonder

Last year a tub of chlorine tabs were $99 now they go for $199. Sheesh

I worked in produce at a Saskatchewan chain and the stuff we were throwing out for the farmers about 6 months ago are now 'acceptable ' to put out for the public....at premium prices. And that 'fresh' salad you picked for lunch??.... that was only fresh 3 days ago and has been recycled to minimize shrink. Prices are absolutely nuts but the most ridiculous I think has to be 18$ for a 750 gram brick of cheese, plain old run of the mill farmers cheese that up until "no more mean tweets" had been roughly 5-6$.

handjobs from CKP are up 20%....he's got bills to pay...

People are going to have to learn to cook from scratch, shop the sales papers, and plan a meal according to what is on sale for cheap.

It is not that difficult to make biscuits and bread - especially this day and age when YouTube videos will show you how to do it.

When I was a kid fast food was very limited.

My mother fed 5 kids and two adults on one chicken and some veggies and some form of bread. Everybody got one piece of chicken... dad got two because he was the bread winner (something that seems to have gone extinct).

Mom always bought whole chickens and cut them up herself.

We rarely bought frozen or prepared foods. We made our own salad mixes and cut or own French fries, etc.

We usually had a small garden that didn't totally feed us, but it did help provide for us.

Instead of ham and turkey lunch meat we usually had bologna and salami.

Snacks were celery sticks, carrot sticks, occasionally fruit and sometime cheese.

We had desert on birthdays and holidays.

We cleaned our plates and were grateful for what we had. Nobody went hungry, but we never put more on our plate or asked for more than we could eat.

My mom on the other hand grew up during the depression. They had meat once a week, had a garden, and ate lots of greens and biscuits and gravy. Sometimes the meat was wild game or fish. Nobody starved.

What will be, will be. Learn to adapt.
If you fail to bend you will break.

Kroger gallon of milk 6 months ago was 1.79. Now it has increased to 3.49. Still not bad but increase is insane.

Not food...

I stopped in at my local store to pick up a gallon of wiper fluid.

Last time there, about 5 months ago, I grabbed 5 jugs at 2.79/each.

Stopped by to grab one and the damned thing rang up at 9.79.

Mistake? No. He checked and the price was correct on the shelf and in the register.

Yeah. No. Keep it. I'm outta here!!

Almond milk $2 half gallon + coupon for net $1.75 ea.
16oz bacon 2.99
Dozen eggs brown cage free 2.49
32oz tater tots 2.29
Ground beef 1.99 lb.

The deals are out there if you look. I only went to 2 stores.

$0.59 for a lemon?

I wouldn't pay a penny for Don Lemon.

The Lemon law

Lemons cost a song.

One song per lemon.

Two lemons if you play more than one instrument.

A bushel of lemons if you are the entire band.

Or perhaps you have a back injury, no dishwasher, and you would rather not endure excruciating pain washing dishes?

Or perhaps you are having a family reunion/ picnic?

There ARE reasons deutsches nincompoop.

Great! Good job!!

Now the prices will be even higher next time I go ...

You stupid MFer.

89 cents for 1 single tiny, low grade lime in my town. And we live an hour away from.where they grow limes, lemons, oranges, etc.

Yeah, I just paid $.89 for limes too, I was like what the heck! LGB!!!! Indeed.

Speaking of which ... alley BJs in my town are up 100%

Twice the price now

Stop buying the elevated prices. This is how supply and demand works:

.50 - they bought them all
.75 - they bought them all
1.00 - they bought them all

"Hmm, let's try 1.25 next week."

$1.25 for an orange
