Prices are skyrocketing in my grocery store.

It's not just your store, believe me. I think it is everywhere.

It’s because of the cold weather we’ve had everywhere and we get so much produce from Mexico and they had a terrible cold snap also. The prices will get worse before better.

Plus so much is wrapped in plastic, which is a petroleum product so that adds to the cost too PLUS the cost of transporting it is going up due to oil.

*sigh* We have 2 of those Aero-Gardens and boy are they getting a work out and are worth their weight in gold. We’ve got terrible soil and never had luck no matter what outside and in the Aero-Gardens you can use your own seeds with their set ups and we’ve done great!
