Congrats on stocking up before prices went up.


I didn’t idiot. I said I buy beef like that all the time. I didn’t go out buying in bulk after you dumbass Facebook mom wannabes got scared.

I do what I always do. I go to the grocery store at least three times a week. I have throughOut the shutdown. I’m more than aware of how beef prices work, and at no point did I see anything out of the norm at my grocery stores. Doesn’t mean that didn’t happen elsewhere, but it sure as shite didn’t in Baton Rouge.

I'm in them everyday. Prices and/or availability were affected in every grocery chain around.

So why are you acting like your experiences in baton rouge are the end all be all in this discussion? That's retarded.

Costco upped prices on every beef item significantly because their suppliers did the same to them. They even limited customers to 3 meat items total per customer at times. Brisket alone went from $2.99/lb to $5.99+. HEB limited to 2 meat items total per customer a couple different times and raised prices accordingly with their increased costs. Randall's/Albertsons/Tom thumb did the same.

Just because you caught something on sale at one point during this doesn't mean prices didn't go up. That's absurd logic.

You realize beef prices fluctuate daily? Where do you get your information because unless you buy meat from a large distributor like NATCO in bulk you have no idea how beef prices work.
