milk is $9 a gallon. I can't take this anymore.

[Anonymous No.18210001]

It's over $10 USD just for a gallon of 1% and one box of sugared wheat.

where the fuck do you live? Regular milk is still under $4 per gallon my local wal-mart. The only time I pay $10 per gallon is when I drive out to the local farm to buy raw milk. Even the fancy milk in glass bottles is still like 3.50 or 4 for a half gallon. Only ultrapasteurized grassfed milk from nationwide brands is over $5 for half gallon

I live in Canada, so decades worth of blatant gov't corruption and price-fixing scams have left me dull and numb to the pain of grocery costs. That's $4.25 for a gallon of 2% in burgerbucks.

[Anonymous No.18210057]

>>18210005
Not them but I live in a state with a retardedly powerful dairy lobby. No, this is not a joke. As such, the state sets /minimum prices/ on dairy here according to "marketing areas." The current minimum for my marketing area is $5.10 for conventional whole, $6.40 for organic.
I get $1 off dairy digital coupons so I'm paying $4.10.

>>18210014
Idk the price of eggs. I think it's $4something/dozen, conventional. Again, I get digital coupons so I pay $3.49/18ct conventional eggs.
I think the store knows that once these coupons stop, I'll shop elsewhere. Literally every time I go to this store, I get or eggs or both and a few other odds and ends.

>>18210050
I have no idea how this price fixing bullshit is legal where I live. No matter the brand, no whole milk may be sold in my area for less than $5.10/gallon and this is somehow legal.

[Anonymous No.18210061]

>>18210014
$3.10 burgerbucks for a dozen white eggs. I'll never get the whole price difference between white and brown eggs. They're the same fucking this from the same fucking chickens.
>"Oh, but brown eggs are more natural...!"
No they aren't.

That's the thing, it usually isn't. They just either never get caught, or when they do get caught they only get a slap on the wrist because they're in bed with the politicians. Our fucking largest grocery chain here is notorious for getting massive gov't handouts since the family that owns it attends all of the Prime Minister's fundraisers. They got caught fixing bread prices and all they wound up doing was giving out a few coupons for free bread.

texas here, a dozen eggs is like $3.60 currently, more than a gallon of gas

[Anonymous No.18210097]

Man, inflation in the US is fucked
I live in the fucking Yukon of all places, where all our food needs to be trucked 1000 miles from the next nearest distributor and a dozen eggs is about 4$ Canadian (about 3$ US)

[Anonymous No.18210121]

>>18210066
That sucks in Canada but at least they get a skap on the wrist. They don't even get that much here because the price fixing on dairy is legal where I live.
There's a state agency with its own state government website which dictates milk prices here with literally no transparency whatsoever. Price fixing is bad and for commies unless big brother does it. Bizarrely, it's the democrats who want to put an end to this bullshit or at least let voters know how the fuck these pricks decide the prices but the state republicans, many of whom are directly involved in the state dairy industry, keep the status quo and voters get fucked.

[Anonymous No.18210144]

>>18210097
I mean, if there's an upside to the price-fixing, it's that a gallon of milk 1600km north in Fort Nelson costs the same as a gallon of milk in Burnaby two blocks away from the bottling plant.

Gas is less than $3.60 a gallon there now? They still putting those stickers on the gas pumps there?

[Anonymous No.18210160]

>>18210156
They'll probably still keep putting up the stickers until it's back under $2 like it was before. No point in praising a $1 price drop after a $3 spike.

$6 for an 8pc on mondays. For $12 any day you can get an 8pc, 1lb of a side like macaroni salad or jojos and a 4ct kings hawaiian rolls.
Used to be $10 until very recently, though. BRANDONNNNN!!!!

[Anonymous No.18210289]

Is this a troll thread? Even the expensive, pasture-raised giga organic milk is like $7 for a gallon where I live. Regular 2% milk is $3.42. Dozen eggs is $2, free range eggs $4.

I realize that prices vary in different places, but who the fuck is paying $12 for a dozen eggs? $4 for eggs in Kansas was pretty surprising too.

A dozen eggs used to be 50 cents for me, so even $2 seems outrageously expensive. Of course, I'm friends with people who raise chickens so I actually get eggs for free most of the time.

ILfag here. Milk where I live is 5-7 for the good stuff, around 3.50 for the Walmart brand. A dozen eggs, the cheapest you can get, are now above 3 dollars. I just picked up a 6 pack of eggs for 1.62. Stores don't have any frozen goods like toaster scrambles anymore. Probably because they cost too much to produce.

Yes, it's a troll thread.

Some of these prices do narrow down where people are bitching about prices, i.e. this is almost an entire thread of Californians bitching about how much their food costs
