Really? Have you compared today’s prices to last year’s prices? Check the sizes. The big 1.5 gallon cheap ice cream is now 1 gallon and 1 pint. There’s no such thing as 3 lb. tubs of margarine anymore, either. Coffee sizes are all over the place these days.

I still get mine in 10 lb bags and roast it myself. ;)

I try to not buy retail, ever.

Just one of the ways inflation is ‘disguised’.

We were talking in the grocery store about how many ‘fancy’ brands would bite the dust when people could no longer afford them.
