Here’s just a brief example of my purchase history of groceries at Wal Mart.com. Here are the July 2021 prices and the prices I paid two days ago:
Chip dip - $1.00 to $1.62
Tortilla chips - $1.09 to $1.74
Gallon milk - $2.60 to $3.24
50 lb. dog food - $20.98 to $23.49
Progresso soup - $1.42 to $1.98
Limes - $.48 to $.68
Head of lettuce - $1.19 to $1.78
A few items like bananas and tomatoes didn’t increase at all, but mostly everything increased by double-digit percentages.
A 16oz package of Oscar Mayer Bologna at my local supermarket the other day:
$5.79. Yes, FIVE DOLLARS AND SEVENTY-NINE CENTS.
These used to be about two bucks, just a year ago.
Did you check the packaging for shrinkflation? Even “Dollartree” raised everything 25% but now their packages are smaller, Some of the cleaning supplies I got there are over 200% higher with the package being half the size. As an aside. Goat food doubled a couple weeks ago. I am not looking forward to this season’s hay bill.
Yes, and they are just the openly admitted inflation. Stagflation has added 1t least 25% to that over the past 12-18 months. So, we are now paying 40% more for groceries than we did a year ago. New cars have increased by 12%. Used cars have increased by 46%. Homes have increased by over 100%.
An article today stated that the average family will shell out an extra $5k per year based on the current prices of things because of Bidenflation.
You would have to be a moron, idiot, or imbecile to vote for Joe Biden or any Democrat.
Oh! did you notice that congress has snuck into a recent bill a raise for themselves. The old truth that the number one priority of nearly all politicians is self is still in vogue.
