Oh, now I understand what you meant by doing it yourself. You did a workaround. I just stopped purchasing once I realized it was a no go. I guess my years in the retail industry as a customer service person worked against me. I went by the stupid gd rules of returns. When they said no, I stopped shopping for anything but the essentials. No new clothing, even if I didn’t fit my old stuff. Nothing on speculation. Only must haves.

All of those were unnecessarily closed here, for far too long. Yeah, I’m bitter. It’s what helps me stay alert to them. TPTB want to take my freedoms from me as often as I’ll let them, so I try not to let them. I can’t afford to forgive and forget. Too much has been taken from me.

I’ve been buying eggs at $3.00 a dozen from a chicken farmer for a couple of years now. He hasn’t gone up on my price through this egg craziness. He has a couple hundred of hens. I found him on Craigslist. Most places should have someone like him in a rural area just outside of the city they live in.

HOA = another layer of ‘government’ to tell me what I can/cannot do with things that I own.

...outside of the city ...

When I moved there, I found out why GOD placed man in a garden!

Blaming institutional inflation on the lower wager working class is so 1970’s. Get real.

What he meant was: "We need workers, but we need workers we can employ at paltry wages we offer that are in the country legally".

Fixed it for him.

Blaming inflation on anything OTHER than Government is misplaced.

Calling citizens “consumers” is degrading, it is lowering human existence to the level of an insect.

Yes, I’m not a fan, but when you have only a short time to find a place to move into, and the house you fell in love with is in an HOA, well, we made the decision to go with it anyway. We do love the house, and the property, so had to acquiesce on a few things like chickens and a big garden out there. We have lots of wildlife though, some woods, and a nice creek. It’s a very pretty view.

We already are, and not only WRT prices.

Strawberries are cheap right now, so I’ll have to see how they go with Bacon...


Bacon prices are no better. Used to be $6 a lb, now it’s $10 for a 12 oz package.

Don’t spend a bunch of time playing with your “died seeds” come planting season. I suspect you’ll be disappointed. /s
