Grocery stores are also manipulating prices to move inventory. They either price their overstocked items lower than other brands, to sell it. Or, they delay restocking shelves to force customers to pay higher prices for what's available on the shelves. I tend to go without or just shop elsewhere. But this week I overheard another shopper snapping at her upset husband/BF, "I know, the price is absurd! But, just put it in the basket - I'm too tired to go to another store tonight!" Sadly, this is why stores may get away with price gouging. You have to be very shrewd now, if you want to eat & still be able to pay your bills. I don't know how families with kids to feed are managing it.
(Price hike expls: Our local "lower budget" grocery store chain (F.L.🦁) is selling one dozen basic generic white eggs for $4.19 - up 300% since last year. Astounding. Fatty 75% lean ground beef is approx $7.00 Lb. - up $2.50 per Lb. Rye bread nearing $5.00 per loaf - some brands $6.50. Coffee is up at least $1.50 per 12oz bag, most brands. A quart of plain yogurt up $1.50 per container. Popular lower cost pet food, if you can find it, up 20-40¢ per small can - & it may make your pet sick with stomach issues.)

Uh... No inflation? Shows how out of touch this DC moron is with our country's problems. But really - he just doesn't care. Nor do his DC flunkies.

This is just a few examples of many. Grocery stores are also manipulating prices to move inventory. They either price their overstocked items lower than other brands, to sell it.
