HAHAHA, those are Free Red State prices,, not reality for the rest of us! Oregon has some of the highest prices in the nation ( Thanks to the state not getting it's "Sales Tax" passed for the last 40+years that the voters told them FUCK NO every two years) So, they tax the livin shit out of everything anyway, and no more bags, ether plastic cause save the whales or paper, cause save the trees, never mind rolls of asswipe, but they will "Sell" you a plastic or paper bag for $.10 cents, go figure! They also pitch a fit if you bring your own shopping bags with another stores brand, I have lost count of the times I have ripped a store manager an new ass telling they lost the right to bitch when they caved to the state and stopped including bags with the purchase at no charge, but will charge me if I need a bag(s) because I Fuckin Forgot to stock my many trucks/cars with enough bags to see me through when ever the Wife calls/texts me to stop and pick up stuff! Gallon of Generic whole milk is up over $3.50 a gallon depending on where you shop Carton of cigarettes is $120+ depending on brand, or $11.79 per pack of cheap generic brands Gallon of Gas as of today at Costco, $3.25 a gallon of the cheap stuff, including $.58 Cents State TAX for roads ( which was miss-spent, so the state is broke for winter service needs) 6 pack of generic store brand T.P. is nearly $3.80 Loaf of Cheap Generic White Bread, $2.08 depending on where you shop Baggy of Green Army Men, Cause I think it's hilarious, I actually looked, $6.78 for what I estimate is a 100 pack Or the Dollar store brand, for a buck and a quarter for a 20 count, including several wounded Chinese mis-molded Men Generic T.V. Dinner, between $1.80 and $5.20, or, the old school Totineos Frozen Pizza for $1.65, used to be $.88 cents at Walliwirld three years ago! Heat Lamp Burrito at the local sleazymart, used to be $1.00 each with one sauce cup, today it's $1.45, and you gotta pay extra for the sauce and the baggy, total is $2.05 today. and the XXL Beverage used to be $1.65 your cup/mug/drink container, today it's $3.50 with a capacity limit of 44 Oz! Box of Winchester 150 gr. .30/06, used to be around $20.00 a box, today its $26.98 PLUS Wildlife tax, Plus Unidentified 3.5%Tax ( Whatever that is,) totaling $29.98! Box of 9X19 ( 9 MM for you non spec shooters) used to be $11.30 a box of 50, today, it's $24.85 plus the taxes above totaling $26.98, for the cheap generic white box/green box target/plinkin stuff! Did find a really awesome deal though, Grizzly Ammo in 10 mm auto, 180 gr hollow points, $22.60 a box, NO TAX, or 220 gr Hard Cast solids, $26.85, NO TAX, no purchase limits, so I cleaned them out of their entire stock, totaling $590.32!
Colorado isn't much better but at least there are fewer taxes! Prices are somewhat lower, especially on fuel, but we're stuck with the Ethanol blends, and exhaust fluid, and they are pushing for more, especially farm use, which I absolutely will not be complying, same as when I installed the three wood stoves without permits or inspections, or any other nonsense, let them come, I got a rabid attorney who LOVES sticking it to "The Man" any chance he gets!
I don't recommend smoking anything as it's a great way to get you to pay into social security all your life then die 1 to 3 years after you start drawing SS.
SC is pretty conservative but those prices are way below what we are paying good luck finding a $1 for a loaf of bread or 1.63 for a 1/2 gallon of milk
We pay a bit more for milk from glass bottles from local farmers, not from wally world or Kroger. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// We are proud to source our milk from a few, independent family farms all located within 30 miles of the Dairy. This partnership ensures both the quality and freshness of the milk. In most cases, the milk is processed within 24 to 48-hours and available for purchase. Talk about fresh! We pay our farmers an incentive for higher quality milk. Our sourced milk is farmer-certified and free of rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormones). These artificial hormones are injected into the cows to artificially stimulate the cows to produce more milk. We guarantee this quality by requiring our farmers to sign a notarized affidavit that states they will not use growth hormones. While some companies are now getting into rBGH-free milk, We NEVER have accepted milk from farms that use artificial hormones. Through additional quality testing, each and every load of milk is further tested to confirm that it is free of antibiotics as well. The result is a higher, consistent standard than the requirement. Kroger run their own dairies...
In BC (Bring Cash) Kanada . gal/1L milk = 10.49 plus Enviro tax on the container Bread = 5.49 to 7.99 Eggs 6.40 / doz (we have birds on the farm/homestead I'll add as I look and take pix so I remember Sloth
The prices are ridiculous --are wages in Canada that high people can afford to buy food let alone anything else.
I'll update with Pictures. Min wage here is 16.90 Kanastand monopoly Fiat. Went shopping today for the ranch. Mushrooms are 5.79/# Celery is 3.49 /bunch deli ham slice is 3.18 for 4 Oz or .118 KG In the summer june/july celery was 1.50 mushrooms were 2.50, Can't remember ham slices Sloth
Costco here in SC sells hot house tomatoes grown in Canada and they are reasonable priced. how much of what you are paying is tax to the Canadian welfare system?
Joe Biden hoisted on his own petard. Bidenomics = 28% price increases from almost exactly 3 years ago.
@johnbb Sir I just saw this between keeping fires going and moving slush . The hot houses for tomatoes are 1.99/ lb on sale . Grown just down island and in Delta / Richmond BC .. Now that the Carbon tax is on all fuels , so that has put the price up from 1.40/lb as of last year. Quick Dick McDick spells out our Carbon tax BS Sloth
Bidenomics: blame companies for inflation. If I remember correctly the term "shrinkflation" was invented during the obama years.
Bidumb cam out and told companies to stop shrinkflation. If companies did that inflation would be even worse
Price fixing of the 1970s comes to mind. Where the government decided they can set the price of gasoline and nothing bad would happen. The gas prices went up because US middle eastern policy blew up in our face, the supply of oil was constrained gas prices soar, the governments genius idea was force the oil companies to sell gas at the old price. Then there wasn't enough gasoline. I'd rather have gas on tap at $5 gallon then have it be $2 a gallon and unavailable.
Companies began reducing package sizes to give thee illusion prices weren't going up (fool the consumer) but price went up on this smaller amounts anyway. Bidumb is an idiot the economy is mess and it his all his fault
I don't use Walmart dot com or anything like that. If you can see the old price for your old order and reorder it today and see the price difference, that would be cool. If Walmart dot com is smart then you can't see the old pricing but I bet they show the date and what you ordered and we should be able to search by date on our online bank accounts and online credit card accounts.
