#me2 but I love to cook and do most of it. I can't grocery shop with her, she reads the labels and takes her sweet time. I am in and out in 15 mins and onto the new task.



Grocery shopping with the wife is painful for me. She will do like yours and want to browse the aisles with no intention of buying any of it.

She and her daughter will sometimes head to Costco on the weekend for a list with 10 items and not be back home for 3+ hours, and Costco is less than a mile away.

$12 ??

I got slapped in the face by Bideneconomics about a week ago when I went to purchase a half gallon of generic 100% orange juice. What cost $1.99 when Trump was in office now cost over $6. Let's go Joe

12 pack of domestic light beer used to be $9. Now it is $13. That change has happened over the course of 4 years.

Whether you want to blame Trump, or Covid, or Biden, I don't see how anyone can now not know exactly why printing money and deficit spending is bad. It should be a bipartisan issue to cap spending. Then the politicians can argue on where it gets spent, but it should be bi-partisan that it is capped. This inflation we see now is just the beginning.

It used to be 3 or 4 packs for $10 back in the day at Winn Dixie. I’d guess $5-6 each now.

Haha. Has nothing to do with being Alpha. I live on a farm in rural Oklahoma. I don't have a job, so I'm either piddling on the farm or at the lake fishing.

He'll, I average swtting foot inside city limits once every 10-14 days.

Super1 has 12 packs for $3.97 for all the major brands. Must purchase 4. They run this special fairly often.

While general inflation has hit OJ like almost everything else the majority of the price increases in OJ prices are related to hurricanes, freezes, and especially greening disease.

I regularly shop for groceries, yet couldn't begin to tell you what anything costs. If I want something, I grab it. I never pay any attention to what the cost is.

Without googling, how much do you think a 12 pack of Coca Cola is?

I don’t shop or drink sodas. My guess is 50 cents a can? So $6.

i typically bounce around and visit three grocery stores each week

i keep telling myself to look at the prices for each item and compare but fail to do so

i estimate i pay approximately $1600 in groceries each month for a family of 4

I but 1 liters for $1.25 - sometimes on sale for a dollar.

That's the sweet spot for me. Two liters go flat before I drink them and individual cans and bottles are too expensive.

Briskets got crazy expensive way before this year. Same with skirt, flap, tri-tip, etc. YouTube has turned everyone into a BBQ ‘expert’

ETA. Cokes are trashy.
