Going through old photos and found these pics I took about a year apart at the same Academy. That trailer that was $999 in the first photo was up to $1,700 when I took the 2nd photo. Not sure why imgflip turned both photos into potato quality but here we are. Thanks, Brandon.

Corn two years ago was $6.99/ bag. Now it's $11.99.

What he's trying to say is the item in Pic #1 that isn't included in Pic #2 went up to $1,700.

The item (Gamefisher) in both pics is self explanatory.

Boats are like cars though, right? That's just an MSRP and you negotiate from there, right?

It’s all Putin’s fault.

It has nothing to do with all the government spending and their policies.

What'd you expect? Decades of wreckless spending capped off by ppe loans, stimulus checks, and extended unemployment. This was inevitable.

You can't haggle prices at Academy unless (maybe) it is a scratched or dented floor sample.

It’s technically not the spending, it’s the massive printing of currency.

Since 2008 we have been overprinting our currency so politicians can buy votes by trying to mitigate the economic consequences of their decisions.

And until this post, I thought it was a myth.

I really feel for the farmers. I knew it was bad, but didn't realize how bad until I went to the co-op this year to get my food plot supplies.
