I shop less and I have moved to less expensive products. I no longer impulse buy. I work from a list. I still run out of money before the end of the month.

Being on Disability, fixed income, my money just doesn't go as far. I try to eat good food, but it's getting harder to afford them. Why is junk food cheaper......

Jeanette Johnson

I totally agree with you. I am also on disability and fixed income. I still shop at Costco because I do get more for my money AND I definitely need more for my money. I don't buy as much meat as I used to that's for sure.

Alma

Yes, I've had to use walmart more and I dislike walmart.

Megan Basl-Huff

The prices are completely out of the roof. Now I have to drive farther to save more on groceries.

Dianne Price

Check where the best sales are!!

Inflation caused by biden

Bryan

Actually, it's Trump's crappy chinese tariffs that we are paying the price for. Biden has done very little that would cause inflation. Brush up a little before making accusations.

But, it has made me more mindful of my purchases.

Lisa York

I still shop at the same stores and buy the same items... just less.

It's jumped so much from last year. I retired recently after nearly 45 years at company but might have to work part time just to make ends meet. So unfair to the elderly, and poor who have a hard time deciding what's most important for survival. Food, shelter, medications or heat. Corporate greed.

Dianne Price

I have oil stoves & oil is over $5 a gal.!!

My C.N.G. bill increased 105% over last December. Yikes !

Teresa Parsons

Yes it's costing quite a bit more to heat our home this year. PP&L obviously raised their rates.

Gabe West

Thanks to biden

I love how Biden lives rent-free in your head.

Me also

I have hydronic heat floors and they are very efficient.

Dieter Heinzer

Not really; living in an "all electric" house, I have kept track of my electric utility bills for the last 13 years. The cost of my Pacific Power Electricity has increased at an average rate of 2.9% per year, which I find quite reasonable.
