Y'all can afford sinks?

Is that a STAINLESS STEEL SINK!?

Take out the apple and it'll work for 2023!

Having a green grocer in town is saving my life.

Those fools sold me twelve perfect little avocados for £2. Froze most of them as guac.

They even called me when my son lost his Pikachu wallet there.

I fucking love green grocers.

I laughed and then I sighed

This is probably a bit circle jerky, but I remember when my mom would buy groceries for an entire month and was devastated that it cost $100 (for a family of 4). We lived in a small town in the middle of nowhere but it's still crazy to imagine getting that much out of that little these days

This feels lazy given that it's almost 2024

Wow I didn't know shrinkflation was that bad already...

[-] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 4 points 11 months ago

My local groceries go on "sale" while still being more expensive and less quantity than a few years back

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

I miss 2022, now is even smaller.

[-] techguy86@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Went to the grocery store earlier today, can confirm!

Inflation was caused by one major grocer just randomly deciding to increase food prices because they knew they could get away with it.

When that's the take even economists are walking away with, you know it's egregious. And OFC our governments did jack fucking shit.

Source? I don't disbelieve you necessarily but I'd love to read more

[-] Omega_Haxors@lemmy.ml 0 points 11 months ago

They call it greedflation.

[-] wholeofthemoon@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Go and check what the money printers are doing and then decide if you think one major grocer is causing inflation. Maybe they impacted it but it wasn't caused by them.

Inflation is a feature, not a bug.

[-] Omega_Haxors@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 months ago

Money printing = inflation is an outdated economic model. It's all about value created vs purchasing power.

You can brr the printers all night but none of that's going to make a difference if it's all sitting harmlessly in a swiss bank account.

[-] Acters@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I personally think wealthy billionaires love inflation because more people go into debt and they get more money

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

Inflation all over the world was caused by one major grocer? Wild
