D@ng Prices Are Out Of Control!!!

Besides the obvious one "gas" has anyone notice other prices going way up?

My wife went shopping last week and was complaining about the price of coffee being $8 a can. She went to the store this morning and the same can of coffee in the same store is $13. HOLY CHIT!!!

Guess they figure with the money everyone will be getting soon, they'll just charge more and take it all right back. ROTTEN *%^#@(^#!!!

I'm already working 2 jobs and don't really have time for a 3rd, that's for sure.

For the first time as a parent I really worry about being able to provide for my family. Obviously income hasn't kept pace with price increases. I was showing my kids how diesel costs over $4 a gallon now, and when I got married 11 years ago and moved here, driving a small diesel sedan, we paid like 97 cents a gallon. I know my income hasn't quadrupled in that time.

We've cut corners where we can, but dang it's not fun. Kind of a shame when living turns into existing.

Yeah, this is one year where my veggie garden is less of a hobby and more of a necessity. Sigh.
Soon, we won't be able to afford to pay attention..hey is that something sparkly???

Since gas prices are going up, shipping has been costly. I can't imagine what a can of spam costs now.

Everything is so darn high. It's ridiculous. I have no clue what they expect us to do. You can only cut corner's in so many places and then you can't cut them anymore.

I'm really starting to wonder if they are jackin up prices because of that tax money!!!

Thinkin we all got a little extra cash we won't mind spending and since it's on necessities what are we gonna do. Because I got layed off work last month we are going to use that money to pay health insurance until I can get back to work.

Yea a garden is going to be a necessity this year!!! So is hunting and fishing!!!

That's what really sucks, that healthy food costs more. If it weren't for ALDI we probably wouldn't get any fresh veggies or fruits.

Yes, I think I will be planting edibles this year, too.
