[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree. A few years ago we used to be a $300/week family and could do mostly organic for that, and now we’re at $450 for the same stuff.

Crackers (which I don’t really buy, but noticed) are $6/box. Bread is $8/loaf. Eggs are $12 for a dozen. We pay $8-$9 for half a gallon of organic milk. [/quote]

Where are you seeing these prices????? I pay $4 a loaf for my fancy bread loaf and I bought 30 eggs for 3.99 today (regular price) and I typically buy the 18 pack from target for 2.50ish. [/quote]

$3.99 for 30 organic eggs?? Where are YOU shopping?

Trader Joe’s sells a dozen of organic eggs for $6, and that’s the cheapest I have found. The prices I quoted are at Whole Foods, where I’ve been shopping for nearly two decades. The prices are fairly typical of major grocery chains where I live (Safeway etc). The prices have skyrocketed. [/quote]

Not organic. Organic is a choice. You are always going to pay more for it. and just for comparison if you want to go on and on about health and then talk about the price of chips and beer-i’m sure you know how that looks.

Normal 18 pack of non-organic eggs is 2.19 at Target by me in MD-I just checked the app to be absolutely sure before I commented.

The 3.99 30 pack came from food lion via instacart (In MD) just today.  non organic. [/quote]

You are proving my point that prices are so outrageous that I’d have to travel far away & change to a worse brand to save money.

A few years ago a dozen organic eggs were $6.99 (vital farm for reference). Now, they’re $11.99. This is true at most grocery stores I go to for this specific brand.

Deny grocery prices at your peril. As we have seen in the past, it matters. You must be in a cheap spot, but that doesn’t mean everyone is. [/quote]
