That they used to buy?
I used to by a certain Frozen pack of breakfast burrito's to last me the week. It used to cost about 9 bucks for a package of about 6. That same pack is now 15 bucks. Quit buying about a month ago. I also passed on bag of Chicken tenderloin's this morning that used to be 9 that are now 13.
Anything you are now saying "NO" to on your normal shopping list?

Milk. It’s almost like gas and milk are racing to be the first over $5/ gallon

No because I get per diem. When I go home from work I just bring my groceries with me to the house. Only need a few things at that point.

My entire grocery shopping routine has changed. I don't make lists, shits not on the shelves. Have to be pretty flexible.

That means their plan is working on you.

You will be eating bugs in a few months.

I shop where stuff is the best value, not wealthy enough to overpay for everything.

Steak. I used to have it twice a week, but it's over 15 dollars a pound in Denver a lot of the time.

I used to donate more to charities, but with the move and trying to afford a house, sorry charity stays at home the next couple of years. Blame the idiots ruining the housing market.

We have cut out the rib-eyes around my house. Most other meats we still buy but it's just the wife and I so it's not quite as hard on us as it is with you guys that have kids.

I haven’t bought beef in years. Mostly because we keep a couple freezers full of deer meat. But I broke down and bought 2 chuck roasts yesterday for $2.99/pound at rouses.

I love me a good chuck roast.

We eat a lot of either baked or pan seared fish, mostly Mahi and Tilapia. Yesterday my wife bought a pack of each. One pound of Mahi was $12, two pounds of tilapia was almost $13. I’m not going to change how I eat. But these prices are getting crazy.

I also eat a lot of fresh baked/air fried zucchini & squash, the prices on those has also skyrocketed.

(Yeah, I know, I have a very limited diet)

This is the only change I’ve made. Used to buy them once a week or so. Now it’s once a month.
I still eat out a decent amount, but it’s brutal on the wallet these days.

Not really, but I have been eating a lot of pork lately. 1.5” bone in for $5 is hard to beat.
