Inflation everywhere?

[bearishgurl]

[quote=GH]I agree food prices are up and up by quite a bit. One tip if you are around the Encinitas or Oceanside area at all is Smart & Final Plus, where you can buy vegetables at 1/2 the price of Vons, Ralphs etc and IMO nicer stuff.[/quote]

Thanks, GH. I’m in South County and go to Grocery Outlet for cheaper fresh fruit/veg (some bagged but all good). Also I know several people who will take me to the Navy Commissary at least once a month. Both of these places are LESS than 1/2 the price of Vons, Ralph’s or Albertsons.

Also there is a “day-old” Oroweat bakery outlet nearby.

It’s not all bad at Ralph’s. This morning, there were 4.5 lb FF Roasters for $3.59 on clearance and 20 extra large eggs for $1.99 on clearance. I only got the chicken but if you can shop on weekday mornings right after they put the markdowns out, you score! Who cares about a bent can or taped up box! This usually happened in the “shelf stocking” procedure.

I had posted awhile back that we were indeed seeing inflation all around us, especially in food prices. Some other posters out there did not seem to feel the same way and pointed out how certain items have gotten cheaper. I do agree that this is true but I cannot feed my kids a cell phone plan with unlimited minutes.

If food prices went up, maybe I would waste less and eat less, which are both good ideas anyway.

The shrinking products bother me most, because that’s an increase they’re trying to impose surreptitiously.

Examples: tuna cans from 6oz to 5oz, store brand yogurt from 8oz to 6oz, “half gallon” ice cream from 2 quarts to 1.75 quarts to now 1.5 quarts, Haagen Dazs pints now 14oz.

At least some toilet paper is narrower than before which was obvious when seeing some older and newer product stacked together. There are no doubt dozens of other products that have shrunk.
