I have heard this past month that summer will be terrible for inflation and food prices especially. I noticed some things I don’t buy often like hairspray has increased at least $1.50 for the brand and size I use. Which makes me happy that I’ve let my hair grow longer and don’t use hairspray often now. Something I also have heard is that Sam’s Club has an overstock of goods right now due to cargo container ships being allowed to unload. They don’t have warehouse space for it and are shipping it to stores. They want to have a fast turnover to make room for more so they may do some good discounting of prices. Some of the stuff is already nearly out of date from what customers have said (watched a You Tube video about it, one woman said she was given free products and not sample-sized either, full-sized items). So now would be a good time to stock up there. And they say when it’s sold out they probably won’t be restocking that stuff. Most of the cargo ships headed this way only have about 1/4 the normal load now.
I went to Sam’s Club in my city on Thursday and they were stocking all over the store in the early afternoon. And stacking stuff high, I’ve never seen such high stacks of merchandise there. I am sure what they said in that video is true.

@cherokeepatti Noticed lots of semi trucks on the road today while out shopping Also noticed Wally world cantaloupe was almost rotten on the shelf (sad)

@anoderod55 Walmart lets a lot of melons rot. They could mark them down before letting them get overripe but they won’t do it. They just write them off as a loss. I about threw up a couple years ago a few days after 4th of July when there was a big cardboard bin of them sitting in the back near the meat waiting to be tossed.

@cherokeepatti Sad . They could mark them down . I noticed too , they don't . Also notice at Walmart no Jiff peanut butter in sight . Maybe because of the recall ?

Biden is such a trash piece of shit trump 2024
carpediem · 61-69, M
There's been some talk about an actual diesel shortage. You want to talk about empty shelves and high prices? Imagine what life will be like WHEN that happens. I can't even imagine. Thank a democrat.

@carpediem just wait until lake mead drops a few more feet and they have to shut down the hydroelectric power plant that supplies power to 7 states!

@carpediem Yet GA and FL and even PA gets their fuel from the same place yet they dont charge the same.
CharlesRomsey · 61-69, M
Similar situation here in England: Inflation is around 10%. Diesel is generally up to £1.85 per litre, which equates to around £7.40, lets say $8 US per US gallon.
Domestic electricity prices is rising faster than inflation, IMHO because of the EcoNuts preventing the development of fracking and re-opening of coalmines.
I don't understand how those on low or fixed incomes manage.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@CharlesRomsey Seems like inflation on prices of most goods and foods is around 25% just for this year….and I see price increases every time I go grocery shopping. It doesn’t seem like it will ever end. People who are living on a fixed income are hurting.
CharlesRomsey · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti 25% may be the case in the USA, fortunately we're not there yet. BUT, if the Gummint keeps on printing money that we can't afford, what should we expect?

I knew Biden sucked since the beginning. As for gas prices we are almost up to 6 dollars in some areas.
carpediem · 61-69, M
@SW-User Hold on to your hat. This is just beginning.
SW-User
@carpediem For sure

We’re in the same position here in Australia on top of all that there’s talk of a price rise in electricity of 130% by the end of the year

@saragoodtimes and the CEOs of big Pharma are taking pay cuts...not!
@samueltyler2 all CEO's aren't taking pay cuts. not just Pharma
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@saragoodtimes yes, I was being sarcastic! look at the profits of big corporations, the oil, pharmaceutical, yes, the formula companies! I agree that the big wigs deserve decent incomes and stock holders decent returns, but things are off the wall!
midschtch · F
So you have a diesel vehicle and its more then it is in FL but you are in a BLUE state and blaming Biden, OMG this is hilarious! On a side note that is fucking rediculous no mater what state you are in period and here is something else to keep in mind regular gas is cheaper in GA then FL, GA is a blue state! Your welcome.
carpediem · 61-69, M
@midschtch But through it all, Biden still sucks. We can all agree on that FACT

Let's Go Brandon!! 🖕

I prefer FJB 😉
Patty81 · 41-45, C
Don’t care, my exxon stock is doing great
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@saragoodtimes all it will do is make each share less valuable and give others opportunity to buy at lower costs.
@samueltyler2 know that hear Bezos wants to buy back a lot and we'll see what the lower price does. probably will divest some
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@saragoodtimes the big companies buy back shares to raise the value and make stockholders happy.
fairgame123 · 61-69, C
Biden Sucks
LunarOrbit · 56-60, M
Wow!

I don’t know how people are getting by.
@LunarOrbit open up the pipeline
LunarOrbit · 56-60, M
@saragoodtimes I agree. We got a shit ton of cheap oil and our govt wants to hoard it.
carpediem · 61-69, M
@LunarOrbit The government wants prices high to stat the "transition" away from fossil fuels even though we're nowhere near ready. The left loves this. Screw the people. "We know what's best". Vote the bastards out.
Highskirt · 56-60, M
We have the same in the uk only we have mr johnson to thank
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Highskirt please, everyone, the rise in fuel prices is not either caused or cured by any one person or approach.
