My wife and I got into it last night about the grocery bill.
I pulled up an old Target order from February 2020.
28 items. $64.50.
Added every single one back to the cart just to see.
$158.30.
Same 28 items. Same store. Same cart.
$93.80 more.
In five years.
We didnโt buy more.
Didnโt upgrade anything.
Didnโt add a single extra item.
Just needed the same things we always needed.
They told us inflation was transitory. They told us it was under control. They told us the economy was strong.
Our cart didnโt get any of those memos.
145% increase in five years.
Not one member of Congress has looked at a grocery receipt in decades.
And it shows.
@HerculesDisney@LizGillies should play Meg in the new live action! Please do not use Ariana. She has a lot of main character roles and someone else needs the spotlight
@ChikFilACali your salads are wayyyy better than @Wendys salads. I got a $10 salad from Wendyโs with no chicken and the worst lettuce Iโve seen. And then had to redeem my lunch by getting the chik fil a salad that comes with chicken and is twice the size and 10x as delicious.
