I did a deep clean of the kitchen today. I found a grocery store flyer between the fridge and the countertop from Aug 22nd, 2019.
Prices just before covid were a little above what I would consider normal.
Now they're 2.5x to 3x that. For everything.
I kept a flyer from 1990, mostly for the video games I circled that I wanted to buy for myself. I was only able to get Super C. But I digress.
The food was absolutely dirt cheap back then. 25 dollars would get you what 75 dollars buys now.
I know a lot has happened since then, but it's insane.
