At the grocery- without actually comparing year-old receipts to today's- I'd say prices have gone up somewhere between 0 and 20, maybe 25 percent... hard to say because of the wild (+20%) fluctuation grocery store prices have ALWAYS had week-to-week, but easy to say it's nowhere near 50 or 100 or 200 percent like some allude to. Kinda like gas prices, people are getting nutso and saying they'll lose their homes, won't be able to feed the kids, etc.
and I'm like, yeah,
if gas went to $10/gallon I'd have to fork over another $60 IN A MONTH.
