In fairness, you are shopping at the wrong place. I restocked my freezer 2 weeks ago with Land O Lakes salted for right at $3.50 a pound from Wally World.

Yeah, the supply chain is broken and inflation is out of control but at least all of this shite stopped the pandemic.

Oh wait.

I am repeatedly told by those on the left that this is all good, especially for the middle and lower class.

If someone is willing to spend nearly twice the price for something for convenience it is a choice. 6.29 a pound is not the going rate for butter unless it is at a small grocery that charges extra because people pay it instead of driving to a larger store closer into a town/city. About a year ago I ran out to the little grocery store just outside my neighborhood and bought a 1.25 oz jar of sesame seeds when I was fixing tuna and realized I was out. It was $6.99, the same brand was 2.49 at Walmart and I could have ordered 20oz from Amazon for just $1.50 more than I paid. I paid for convenience and to save time. Anything but apples to apples is faulty.

There are certain items that have significantly increased in price, butter isn't own of them.

I can see that you obviously work for the Biden administration. Kamala, is that you? Thanks for your astounding remedy for rising inflation in the Mid South.

If gas keeps rising I'll just go to a different gas stations... If Stamps keep rising I'll just go to a different post office.

Man, you are so smart. Why didn't I think of that?

Give us your zip code. It will take about a minute to determine whether $6.29 is the "commodity" price in your area or whether there is a healthy convenience tax being added at that store.

There is zero question inflation is bad right now on many items but if you are showing a price with a roughly 60% convenience tax with no baseline it is disingenuous.

Butter isn’t gas dumbass

I went to Calandros today. $5 for orange juice. $4.50 for a bag of cookies.
Didn’t buy it. You know why? B/c I’m not a dumbass and I pay attention to prices and I go to different stores. That same orange juice is $3 at Rouses, and the cookies are $2.50.

All these dumbasses complaining about grocery store prices are fricking dumbass Facebook idiots looking for attention that have never paid attention to prices at the grocery store in their life.



Your stupid arse Biden voting assumption makes us conservatives look dumb. Quit it, dumbass.
