[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No idea what you are talking about.

My groceries went from $275/cart to $400/cart in 2021.  Been about the same ever since, except for Aldi.  I do feel like their prices have gone up a bit, but still super cheap.[/quote]

Prices went up because of a pandemic…and continue to go up. Even I have noticed it and I just don’t pay attention to stuff like that. Granted, I’m wasting my money at Balduccis. But just the other day, I was so shocked by my bill from Safeway that I looked at the receipt to see if there was a mistake. I never look at receipts.

And news articles confirm that nothing is super cheap.

The average nationwide price of a dozen eggs decreased by about a quarter in March, according to data from consumer research firm NIQ. But at $6.27 for a dozen, the cost of eggs is still up 75% in the last 12 months, an increase that is greater than those of any other of the six staple grocery items tracked by NBC News.

While eggs are up the most in the last 12 months, the average price of a pound of ground beef is up 51 cents — nearly 9% — and orange juice is up nearly 7%. The price of a pound of chicken breast meat is down 13 cents, 2% lower, and pork bacon is down 1.8%. Sandwich bread is even with its price in March 2024.
