Everything is expensive now. Have you bought olive oil recently?
How much you payin' for OO? I switched to blended because it's cheap as chips, $3.55/500ml bottle
Nobody uses "OO" as an acronym for olive oil. Why did you do this? Actually, I don't care, just don't ever type that again
OO. It sOOnds like yOO are needlessly OOpset OOver sOOme dOOmb shit yOO fOOcking gaygOOt. Why dOOn't yOO gOO sOOck a dOOzen shits, hOOmOO
This. It's not hard. If you have time to b***h about prices here, you have time to look at sales/offers and to find coupons.
t. one true scotsman
People do though, unfortunately. Haven't you heard or read "EVOO"? I hate it but it exists.
uOOh
They just did a marketing gimmick where they paid the American Heart Association to say not eating breakfast causes heart attacks and then upped the prices predicting an increase in sales.
Then why is it on sale?
corporate altruism
>sale price was regular price 2 years ago
they shouldn't be allowed to call it a sale when it's 40 cents off a 7.40 product
Struth.
exactly, theyre doing OP a favour, likely losing money and this is how he thanks them. piece of shit
Everything is on "sale" all the time here. They make the base price excruciatingly high then give a sale price of like $0.50 off or "buy 5 get $1 off per unit" so people still think they're saving money.
sounds like you might need to contact your social worker to increase your monthly EBT payment
>my D makes my heatt
There wont be a riot until chicken prices go up drastically. Brown people can still buy gigantic bags of chicken legs or whatever for under 10 bucks. When that goes to 20, there might be riots. I'n my area I've watched those bags go from about 5.50 to around 8 dollars. Meanwhile, the price of beef has basically tripled.
in 2019 prices in chicago for chicken thighs were 1.19/lb. Today that same store is now $2.99
That's shitty gay rich wypipo brands but unironically. You think poor ppl buy whole foods or organic chicken when they get industrial shit at half the price?
Kek I get higher quality poultry than that without paying the supermarket a god damn dime.
>even the animals are on welfare
what a great economy
extremely underrated post
Fresh farms has quarter legs for like 1.1 dollars a pound. Granted you get 8 quarter lets, but it is what it is. Also why even live in the city? You should know you're going to be spending way more there.
Corned beef brisket is $2/lb in my area this week and London broil is $3/lb as is 80/20 ground. I was able to get prime rib roasts last month for $4.97/lb. That's all with coupons, both paper and digital
Safeway keeps giving me $3 off coupons daily on these gluten free cookies she likes, rendering'em just 99¢ a pack, so that's nice, too.
Just buy gener-
>malt o meal is now $7 a bag
>for a small bag
>local grocery store only stocks the kids cereal for that brand now and I'm not overly interested in fruity pebbles
Store brand is still half decent on price.
>/pol/troon says something objectively incorrect
Even fricking tyson chicken, slimy garbage that always has one "tender" be nothing but fat slime with breading, is over $9 a bag now. That trash used to be closer to $6. Chicken prices already shot up through the roof.
>Store brand is still half decent on price
lol
No it fricking isn't. Name brand is always always always cheaper if you're not a moron, you moron. See
There is no reason to pay $7 for a box of cereal lmao
>muh coupo-ACK!
I can buy two boxes of store brand cheerios for $6 and get more for my money than a single box of actual cheerios.
>don't trust your lying eyes
Unlike you, I actually go shopping. I've stopped buying chicken of any type because I see how overpriced it's become and how bad of a deal it is. Even banquet nuggets and tendies, full of water and air, are over a dollar more expensive than pre-covid.
If you actually bought chicken, you wouldn't be talking about nuggets and tenders, you no-cookin'-ass motherfricker.
I repeat: you're bad at shopping. And on top of that, you clearly can't fricking cook, either.
Also
>I can buy two boxes of store brand cheerios for $6 and get more for my money than a single box of actual cheerios.
lmfao, holy shit
I can buy THREE boxes of actual Cheerios for that price, you only semi sentient sack of shit. There was a sale recently at Safeway, $1.99/box. Add in a coupon or two and it's even cheaper than that, you mouthbreathing inbred. There's no reason to ever buy store brand unless you just happen to prefer the taste or texture is store brand (my kid loved the frick out of Aldi PB&J cereal, for example, and no name brand offers anything like it afaict)

>83¢/lb PERDUE chicken
>over 30 years of aggregated data btfo by a regional anecdote
you are on par if not worse than the per capita sheboons who can’t into per capita.
That's nice, dear. Still not seeing how that means I'm paying $37/lb for filler-filled dino tendies : )
>um ackshually this chicken doesn't count only this chicken ok
You must be 18 or older to use this site.
>Chicken prices already shot up through the roof.
lol
No they fricking didn't.
You're just bad at shopping. You're probably one of those people who get surprised at the till.
These posts were exhausting to read after 08 and they’re even more exhausting now. You don’t even have anything to gain from lying which is why I’m so confused when you continually gaslight everyone into believing you can still somehow live off of $100 a month in food.
NTA but I unironically do live off $100 a month on food and I'm a zoomer.
What the frick are you even talking about?
Want me to link you to chicken prices, you dumb shit?
lrn2sales and coupons
I got a box of Life and two boxes of instant oatmeal last week for 66¢ each ($5/3boxes IE $1.66ish each and I had a $3 off coupon if you buy 3 boxes of cereal or oatmeal from Quaker so I paid $2/3 boxes).
Was gonna buy Kellogg's stuff this week with a similar set up but I was told that if I brought home more cereal, she'd leave me and I could build myself a new missus out of Crispix and Cheerios (we have 12 boxes of cereal in the kitchen if you count the 2 oatmeal boxes I mentioned).
Dont buy it.
>chicken leg quarters are regularly 99c/lb
lol
66¢/lb or less in my area. Drums and bone-in thighs are 99¢/lb, tho.
Look at the bottom graph. israelite printed 3-4x all the money in existence to give to themself during the holocough. Inflation has not remotely caught up.
I like that nobody seems to realize this. 'There's no free lunch' seems like the most basic of logic. People beg for gov. spending to help them with 'costs of living', but gov. spending drives up the cost of living. There's no saving this financial ponzi scheme and people are too moronic to save themselves, it's over.
The guy printing the money has nothing to do with the government.
Imbecile. Look up 'quantitative easing' and keynesianism.
>keynes
>-ian
>ism
the english language is not a box of legos where more is better PICK ONE
I don't have to eat oatmeal. I could buy the more expensive stuff, like eggs, breakfast sausage, taters, bread, or even that "cereal" that is 97% sugar, 2% multivitamin, and 1% oats.
I love oatmeal because it is honestly the most filling of all the options available. That being said, I'll eat a bowl of oatmeal with a full breakfast now and then because I'm not a breakfast bigot, and honestly, I love a big bowl of oatmeal after dinner as "dessert."
One minute oats cost the same as the other types, and you can be super lazy and eat them in a cold bowl of water if you want.
>well you're helping my point
I know. Just pointing out that my prices are better. I miss when leg quarters were 29¢/lb. Ten pound bag for $2.90.
You know what is cheaper than chicken?
Dogs and cats, if you know how to catch them.
I like to make orange cat or dog and serve it to guests to see if they can notice a difference between that and chicken. Many American capitalists say they can tell the difference, but they really can't.
The look on their faces when they realize they just ate dog is priceless. And then they keep eating it.
>i picketed my local polling firehouse with a sign that said every US politician should be hung. every single one.
You should've put a photoshop of Obama with his neck in his noose on your sign, so they would know that you were being serious. "Hang them because of the content of their character, NOT their skin color!"
"Colloquially correct" is ebonics for "wrong."
>"Colloquially correct" is ebonics for "wrong."
You don't seem to understand what we are conversating about, white boy.
You(homosexual) get hanged

Eating cereal for breakfast is for kids, I have black coffee and a poached egg on marmite toast with sriracha.
if you didn't storm the capitol on January 6th you have no right to be b***hing about this
It's going up because all the ketotards are boycotting cereal, bread, etc.
Just make burritos for breakfast for the entire week. I do that so I don't have to eat chemical hazards for breakfast everyday
Just how fricked up is your life that barely literate illegal immigrants are legitimate competition in your career field?
don't underestimate a strong back and poor people engineering m8, will wreck yourself
yeah frick poor people right
Is that what I said? Illegal immigrants are even poorer than that anon, presumably, since they're willing to work shittier jobs for worse pay. I'm just wondering what exactly your state of affairs is that someone whose only qualification is "willing to work for cheap" is actually capable of taking your job. Surely you guys do have some kind of real skills, education, experience right? Even if it's agricultural work, all the farms around here are a handful of white guys overseeing a legion of beaners. What I'm asking about is what's stopping anon from being one of the overseers.
By accepting lower wages, worse working conditions, and worse living conditions, they drive down standards and expectations for all entry-level labor.
Vote Democrat
This is a WEF ploy to drive up prices of meat higher than plant-based products. Now we wait for bug based products to be cheaper than me and the switch will be complete.
>How did cereal of all things end up so fricking expensive?
because you morons keep buying it
>what is 3rd world inflation in the US
grim
i like browsing this board and seeing all the people who dont know how to shop or how to cook b***h endlessly
i feel no sympathy. you deserve it.
Because 2 of the top 10 wheat producers in the world are at war with each other. And the 3rd biggest producer worldwide is banned in the West because of that.
I didn't know the us president set the price for Cheerios
stop being poor
boomers
sugar is addictive so their customer base will continue buying morning zogslop no matter the price, same reason Mcdonalds gets away with price gouging
your purchasing power was stolen from you
>sale prices haven’t risen at all with regular prices you dumb frick LMAO LEARN TO COOK
>beef

Was on sale for $.99/lb not even 5 years. You just posted triple that “on sale”. Get fricked you moronic Black personhomosexual. I don’t know what israeli institute you’re shilling for but they need to get their money back. Btw I can get everything you can for free by dumpster diving. You’re a fricking moron for spending money at all buddy
Haven't seen 99¢/lb in over a decade. 5 years ago, it was $2.49/lb, kiddo.
>telling me what I saw with my own eyes
Doesn’t work like that israeliteboy
That's nice, dear. : 3
I'm still paying less than you are and doing so easily. Enjoy your hyperprocessed "chicken."
