[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Around spring 2021, there was an article in the WSJ where several food company spokespeople said their companies were going to raise prices as much as possible [b]to find the breaking point for consumers[/b]. [/quote] OP here, well, they found my breaking point I guess. I finally started using a budgeting app (You Need a Budget) last June and I've been using it to track my grocery and take out spending, mostly. That's where I really overspend. So I've been doing a good job bringing the expense down slowly, just by paying a little more attention. But it reaction to the seemingly recent and large hike in cost of a lot of foods, I guess I plan to pay even more attention now. I certainly know how to be frugal and economize on food. I did it for years as a SAHP with a low HHI and small kids. It's just been nice not to have to think about every little expense any longer. But some of these prices are CRAZY.[/quote]
