The grocery ad I will take with me shopping tomorrow has: 10 lbs. #1 Russet Potatoes for $1.99 1-gal. Milk for $2.00 Lettuce 2 heads for $1.00 3 lbs. Red Delicous apples for $1.00 Siroloin tip steak for $2.79 per lb. Round Roast for $2.99 per lb. 48 oz. Corn Oil for $1.50
Pork is up a little, but I bought a 10 lb. box of bacon last week for $20.00
Overall I don't see that much grocery inflation in basic food items here. And I cook very good meals from simple basic items.
My youngest son brought our food bill way down when his doctor gave him orders regarding his triglyceride levels. He’s doing chicken curry like a pro now. He does everything but the spice mix from scratch.
Wow,your prices are so incredibly low it’s like we live in different countries. I can’t imagine getting three pounds of apples for a dollar or two heads of lettuce for a dollar. I’m not even sure I could find 10 lbs. of potatoes for $ 1.99. Ours are 10@ $3.99 at best, as I know and lettuce is 1.99 a small head.
