Same here. Between the Eggs and Milk prices maybe should get a milking cow and Some hen's for eggs. If this keeps up for a year they have paid for themselves .

Damm bro
Where do you live
We are having a bumper brown shrimp season in sou louisiana
Got 30 pounds of 16-20s for 3.00 a pound last week

I've stopped buying chicken wings. Who the frick is gonna spend over 4.00/lb for chicken?

Not this frickin' guy right here. That's for sure.

Milk is over $5/gallon where I shop for groceries - and that’s at Walmart. Yep, I shop at Walmart because I’m trashy as frick.

You shop at Walmart because you're not stupid.

I actually cut back on shopping at a grocery store. I buy meat, fruit, and veggies direct from farms near me or a farmer's market. I buy eggs from a coworker.

Oh you're just so goddamn smug, aren't you.

Now you have me wondering what we spent on the wings we bought last week I don’t remember. It was those smaller packs of wings already split apart into wingettes, 2 packs of them.

We started buying a lot more store brand items

Even under normal circumstances, I do this.

Same. I’m trying hard to change it not even necessarily because I need to monetarily, but because it’s just wasteful and careless.

I’ve starting buying proteins (or separating and freezing proteins) in portions that only feed the two of us anytime I can. For example, my store packages two leg quarters for $1.50 a pack. I only cook the two. Leftovers just don’t get eaten enough in our house.

I wouldn’t say we’ve cut out buying anything in particular, but for example leg quarters, I’m buying lower priced cuts I never bought previously just because they’re so much better priced.

yep
