Some of the price increases relate to ever-increasing theft. People are thieving more as often they are struggling to afford to eat. I saw an old lady in the Marks and Spencer petrol station shop shoving food into her shopping buggy and walk out the door.
@meggie it's sad that people have to steal to eat. I feel for them tbh.
@Punches exactly. As a society you shouldn't force people into poverty then punish them for it.

There is a lady on here who was talking about a jump in the price of olive oil...
Now this. Did prices just jump up overnight and I haven't been to the grocery since before this happened?
I picked up a few things Tuesday I think and paid about what is usual.
I know over the past few years the prices of some things has doubled, kind of creeping slowly.

I was at Kroger this morning. $7.50 for a dozen eggs. Just checking. I didn't buy them.
Meat has been high awhile, so afraid to look tonight when i have to go shopping.
Chicken last time was already higher than usually

I didn't go today but did send for grapes
Every time I go there's a crew by the eggs going berserk. I'm just like I get it but please part like the red sea and let me away from you all ....

@cherokeepatti I get most of my basic shopping from Aldi or Lidl - as you said, excellent for fresh veg and fruit.

@ArtieKat Winco has been really good lately on prices

@cherokeepatti We don't have Winco in the UK

Prices globally can only get worse for the consumer as tit-for-tat tariffs take effect. Basic economics

With the weather becoming so unpredictable it's difficult to go that route too. My garden hasn't done great things for a few years now. Extremes of drought or deluges of rain are making me think about how much I want to invest into it this year.

@robingoodfellow when I get to AZ I plan to build a small greenhouse and do some experimenting. I'm east coast now and yeah it's definitely changing. A lot. We'll have to get better at hydroponics and even better aquaponics.

@SW-User But if you voted for trump (and enough people did) This is exacly what you voted for. He said most of it out loud and left you to do the math. Dont blame him if you didnt do your homework..His economics was straight out of the bible. Feeding the multitude with a few loaves and fish...And that parting the Red Sea is due any day to solve a bunch of other problems...😷
@whowasthatmaskedman you're on repeat dude, get your bolts tightened
America may become skinny again.
@ScreamingFox Oh believe me I do care!

@Unefilletrescurieuse people do get fat eating cheap processed food too as they can't afford a decent balanced meal
