[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I pay $5.49 for a bag of the pita chips at Harris Teeeter. I just checked the app and that’s the current price. As a matter of fact, it shows they’re BOGO today so about $2.75. Did you buy the large 16oz bag instead of the typical size? Those are $9.99. I don’t buy things like this unless they’re on sale. Inflation is crazy so I now buy more generics and keep track of typical prices for foods I buy frequently. I have not found any one chain to have across the board cheaper prices. One store is cheaper on milk, another on eggs, another on produce. It’s a pain to chase the best prices. [/quote]

Yeah, uhhhh, I buy the biggest bag because we are a family of 5 and two of those are a 15 year old boy and a 17 year old boy. Have you ever seen what a 6ft 2, 205 pound teenage boy will eat? It's honestly wild. We grilled 6 pounds of boneless chicken last night and had salad, four artichokes, 3 cups of rice and he ate about 4 pounds of food. That was his 4th meal of the day. Some of you are just clueless.[/quote]

I’m not sure how your response relates or why you feel the need to call me clueless.   I was simply stating the price of a bag of chips and not what it costs to feed teen boys. But I will acknowledge they eat a lot because I have an 18 year old college athlete and a 21 year old runner who are always hungry. My answer is that I buy what is on sale, buy generics where appropriate and take advantage of Costco or Sam’s Club. Grocery prices are insane thanks to the current administration but changing my shopping behavior has really helped us to stretch our dollars. [/quote]
