    I went to buy eggs and they were like 12 dollars. I could have swore eggs were a lot cheaper in the past.

    Man some things have really hit the “I mean, it’s one banana, Michael. What could it cost? $10?” levels of ridiculousness price wise.

      Since I buy almost the same thing. I don’t pay attention to the cost per item. I just watch the total at the end.

      My groceries went from about 80 a week to about 150-180 a week.

      I have no clue how the average family is handling this. It’s become so insane even I’ve noticed.

      I’m a republican but we need to seriously raise the minimum wage. There is no way anyone can survive on it.

      It’s almost 14 here and you can’t survive on that.
