I'm not going to complain about the prices of fuel and groceries for in the US we are SUPER privileged in having CHEAPER food and gas than most of the world, but I'm just shocked at how FAST it has gone up!
Now, I do have a toddler in diapers, so my bill is higher than it will be once the diapers are gone, but I spend on average now $280 a WEEK at the grocery store. We eat ALL meals at home and pack lunches for 4 people, but one is a toddler, so he doesn't eat a ton yet!
I also buy organic meat and dairy and whole grain breads and pastas and fresh fruit and veggies, so I EXPECT my bill to be higher than most, but.... a year ago I rarely topped $200 a week. Now I'm at $280 a week, that's a HUGE increase and our eating habits have not changed!!!!
Anyone else experiencing this?
