I’m glad for lower prices. But ...
Destroy America to Build Back Better is their plan I guess.

Yep
Well it IS an election year, so.....
Walgreens was already 30% higher than most places.
Yeah. Lower from record highs. Still higher than 2020.
I think it depends on the store.
The more junk they lock up, the less we buy
Walgreens offered me 20% on in store products several times lately. I had all my prescriptions transferred to the VA Hospital and Ft Bragg pharmacy.... It will always be Ft Bragg to me.
Screw greedy Walgreens.
Biden blaming the people and not congress who spent 1/3rd more creating the inflation and bad economy.
A distantly related question here:
Most sources state the interest on the US Federal debt in 2023 was ~$659 billion. But others say the “annualized” interest was over $1 trillion. If the $659 billion was for the entire year of 2023, would that not be the annualized figure, or is this something different? How much tax money actually went out the door to pay the interest on the US debt on 2023?
Are the WalMart items the ones that were, say, $2.22, WalMart raises the price to $2.58 for a week, then lowers it to $2.43, and announces a rollback?
No, it is certainly NOT.
“Had lunch yesterday at Paneras. Wife and I each had half sandwich/salad and medium soft drinks. Total was $35.”
Which of you had the steak and who had the lobster?
They weaponized the government long ago.
Xiden called out the corporations for higher prices to deflect from bad policies.
Suddenly multiple corporations announce lower prices when polling hits bottom for the puppet.
Xiden even took credit for the first wave of cuts announced by Target, almost as though it was scripted. Hmmmm...
I remember the headlines, “Xiden warns companies to bring down prices.”
I also remember his announcement of a ‘new task force to take on “unfair and illegal” corporate pricing.’
I don’t believe in coincidence.
It is not ‘tin-hat’ to suggest that the so-called ‘task force’ was comprised of IRS and reached out to these corporations; these headlines are the convenient result.
I firmly believe that you are correct, except it’s ‘coercion’ (threat of force, i.e., audits, etc.).
I only try to buy when things are ON sale...
PRICES ARE INSANE
Sorry, it’s bad.
IMO, they all were gouging us when the plandemic scared the public about clogged supply chain, shortages and long waits for replacement items. So people stockpiled items and bought several when they were on sale.
Now there’s a big drop off in revenue because people are eating down their stored items to cope with Bidenflation. So, once again, the market has exerted its proper role against pricing.
Now we need serious attrition among the entitled boom class of Ivy League C-suite MBA hogs-at-the-trough.
