The regular Wendys hamburger now looks like the kids size.
The bag of chips I used to eat went from 2.5 oz down to 1.95 oz
Now we have Biden and real incompetency.
How's that working out for you democRATS?
Making everyone suck air with this loser in the Oval Office.
POTUS Trump was far from perfect but I do believe the Trump era could have been the greatest years of America in my lifetime (born in 1969). I can easily say the * years are absolutely the worst and for which I never thought could happen.
Time to buy oil stocks.....100 dollars a barrel in the near future...
Will offset the 3.50 a gallon gas.... most have doubled in the last four months...
Cans of tuna are now starting to look like the same size as cat food tins.
Even the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger or Double-Stack w/Cheese?
I used to pay $1.29 for the former and $1.99 for the latter.
Haven’t gone there in years though.
Time to break out the pressure canner again…..
Mr mm has been buying pipe for a propane hook up and the price of that has doubled in a week or two.
And the quality is terrible.
Mr. mm just bought a new chain saw and he had to search to find one that did NOT have computer chips in it.
He wanted something completely mechanical that he could repair himself and not have to replace if the components died.
Ooohh Yeah! Bought a friend breakfast at IHOP yesterday. I had an omelette and coffee. He had a basic egg/pancake breakfast and water. $28! I didnt look at the ticket but i bet they charged me like $3 for that cup of coffee.
Very good advice.
Why do young people still flock to the big cities?
At the grocery store here in Central TX, a head of iceberg lettuce was $3.09 this am. This was at the largest TX based grocery chain. Fancier head lettuce, Bibb, romaine, etc cost even more.
Thanks for posting...

___________________________________________
I wouldn’t put all the money in oil stocks.
My portfolio has money in oil stocks and let me assure you that there are A WHOLE LOT OF IDIOTS in those boardrooms, as well.
I mean, there are days that I swear, they are out to sink their own companies.
Like, working for China would be their main gig and destroying the oil companies in this country FROM WITHIN is what China is paying them to do.
Sigh.
Off my soapbox.
I think it tasted a bit like soylent green. 😀
Probably smaller portions indeed.Where’s the beef?
Also perhaps a cost cutting method: little
machines on your table top to pay.Seen
them at Olive Garden and Applebees. You add the tip etc and use your card. May be quicker if you’re in a hurry and want to pay and head out.
Recently at a Cracker Barrell they apologized for having only one server in a huge room. Who wants to work?
Also there’s an option to pay on your
phone.
99 chain in New England: URL on your bill
with code to enter and use phone to pay.
Of course places like TGIFridays, 99 etc have loyalty programs to get free items.
Dominos pizza program, get a free one after getting 60 points.
IHOP does pancakes well. I don’t go there often but get the urge sometimes. Then
I get the bill and say to myself, ok I had omelette with pancakes and they were fairly good but expensive now...why did I
bother coming?
Recently I got the urge to do IHOP again
and went to a Revere MA location, a tiny
one that had been there a long time.
Sorry, 20 min wait but go to your car
(no wait space inside) and we’ll text you.
Once I got in service was fast, food
half decent, price a bit much...
Drought, crop failures, inflation, and everything else is starting to really weigh on businesses and people.
We get the gov’t we deserve.
