Apart from the eggs, everything on your receipt costs about double what it does here in the UK

>>16927693
>those prices
Thanks, Brandon...

>>16927693
Because people on fagbook keep sharing scary blog-articles about disappearing groceries and soaring prices.
And then they run to walmart and panic buy shit, leading to some empty shelves, which they then take photos of and share on fagbook as proof of the apocalypse.

>>16927693
What was the $/lb cost of that chuck? The total is a bit meaningless without it.

>>16927714
They were both around 2.5 lbs. The pork chops were 2.5 lbs. also.

>>16927693
>3 jars of sauce
>$10
You robbed yourself.

>>16927721
4 jars

>>16927693
No sales tax on food is nice.

>>16927708
Idk, people immediately blamed biden for gas prices but I seem to remember gas being $5 a gallon in 2019

>>16927693
>Taylor, MI

Whats is like being poor?

I can't afford beef anymore in the Biden economy

>>16927746
No. With all due respect, you need to educate yourself.

Gas ALWAYS goes up when Democrats get elected. Happenned with Jimmy Carter, Occured with Obama. Occuring now. Why? Democrats kill coal based fuel and energy. They have shut down the coal energy plants in my town. They also shut down an oil pipeline, so guess what? People still need gas to heat their home and to drive their cars. So what do they do? They use a pipeline, so since the democrats shut down the pipeline because of "Muh Environment" (which even if global warming is real its all china and indias fault btw) ---so people still having a demand for gas, they literally make oil tankers drive back and forth with all of this shit instead of having the pipeline do it, yes, they are that stupid. It is nothing but government incompetency that is driving up the prices of this shit.

As far as the 'worker shortage' and the supply chain issues. Its many things, the biggest pieces of the pie chart are:
>Vax Mandates
>Welfare expansion because of covid
>Alternative ways to make money for poor fags like crypto and marijuana legalization
>Student Loan Deferment and all the college grads not getting jobs
>Mask Mandates (my local kroger had half the staff walk out due to mask mandates despite being vaxxed and no state mandates)
>Chip Shortages in asia

Its all bullshit, and its all democrats fault.

But hey at least hitler 2.0 is gone and no more mean tweets

>>16927703
LoL bullshit.

Prove it, faggot.

>>16927766
I mean, you're 100% correct and also got double dubs, but nobody is going to agree with you. Contrarian website.

>>16927790
Yep people just disagree for attention and 'yous' because the need the dopamine, i get it.

Either way I loaded up at my local Sam's Club. Spent 1000$. I'm stocked for a few months.

>>16927766
>Its all bullshit, and its all democrats fault.
They've been trying to instigate open rebellion in the U.S. since the Bush administration. Their goal is to disarm the American people and rule over it as a Chinese vassal state with no significant way to impact world politics without Beijing approval.

And they're winning, too....

>>16927693
>$1.79 for eggs
I pay half that you goofazoid

>>16927693
How's Gwen doing?

>>16927693
How hot was Gwen?

>>16927766
>(which even if global warming is real its all china and indias fault btw)
people from india driving giant RV's and commuting 120miles a day in 6000lb suv's and buying tons of cheap disposable crap shipped from china/walmart and drinking water bottled and shipped from new zealand. oh yeah and tons off cheap beef and palm oil from the amazon and then throwing half of it away cause leftover from the fridge are for poor people/ check yer privledge, bozo

>>16927818

>>16927830
He is from Taylor MI, google it. We call it "taylor-tucky" as a mockery of the poor white trash that lives there. Chances are Gwen is pushing 3 bills and has bubbles glasses from Trailer Park boys

>>16927703
Liar.
>Cheese, $4/lb
Maybe you're getting it cheaper but I doubt it's as cheap as $2/lb
>pork and beef family packs
We don't have specific sizes, but a family pack near me is in the 1.5-2lb range, so $2.50/lb for pork and $4/lb for beef. It's not cheaper than this in england
>newmans own sauce 24oz/$3.25
I don't think they are in England. You probably have a comparable brand though, they are just a no-BS brand without a lot of artificial ingredients. this is a good price for it.
>Cottage cheese, $3/lb
You can probably get this one cheaper in england
>eggs
by your admission you can't. I would have said these are expensive by american standards
>tortillas, $3
He got ripped off here, this same brand is $1.50 by me.

>>16927863
Not saying the US couldn't do better but statistically most greenhouse damaging emissions come from wherever the cheap manufacturing is coming from, currently thats China. Was US for a long time.

>>16927766
Untrue and needs-to-check-his-facts-pilled. Gas prices have been sky-high since Bush

>>16927816
Not OP but I can buy eggs for .99 or buy pasteurized eggs for $2.99. I also live close to a guy that has chickens in his yard and he charges $2.50

>>16927912
>but statistically most greenhouse damaging emissions come from wherever the cheap manufacturing is coming from, currently thats China
That and China pretty much has a free pass to burn as much coal as we want from the Paris accords. Those accords are a farce for white losers to feel good about themselves.

>>16927912
>Not saying the US couldn't do better but statistically most greenhouse damaging emissions come from wherever the cheap manufacturing is coming from, currently thats China. Was US for a long time.
and where does the usa get most of its disposable, plastic garbage product from?

why arent we sustainably manufacturing products in the usa? oh yeah , cuae of da joooos

>>16927693
"saveland?" That doesn't come as much of a savings.

>>16927986
We have Kroger and other chain stores but Saveland is a locally owned place. We try to support small business.

>>16927693
>not a single fruit or veg
ngmi

>>16927711
Who the fuck in their right mind deals with zuckerburg and facebook with their agenda pushing bullshit in 2021?

>>16927994
I go to Dollar General for that, there's one across the street from where I live.

>>16927994
Unless there's hude snow drifts then it's an easy walk.

>>16928023
The city and country keep the roads pretty clear during our big snow dumps.

>>16927746

You mean during panic buying?

It was also at it's lowest retail price in 2019 as well

>>16927693
>$2 for 450g of pasta
You get twice as much for a buck in leafland.
I envy your beef prices however

>>16928037
They have these huge snow dumps in upstate NY, one can ski down those they get so large.

Around were I live, the cost of meat and produce has gone up. But it's mostly because the stores stopped running sales on them I guess due to limited supplies. So now we're paying normal price for everything compared to before where meat would be up to $5.99/lb off or produce would be "B1G1".

>>16928049
>panic buying
>in 2019
Kek. You got your timelines mixed up.

>>16928065
I would buy 5lbs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts for about $10. 1 day a week it would go on sale B1G1 with the buy one suddenly costing around $20. lol

>>16927693
Do you not eat vegetables?

>>16927721
>>16927726
Bought 4 Jars of sauce at costco for $6

>>16927693
>muh brandon joke hehehehehehe

>>16928464
that's saveland not costco

>>16927693
this used to be 5.99 less than 2 months ago

What's everyone paying for chicken? It went up briefly in my area (Central Cali) but went back down to about $2/lb for breasts and $1/lb for thighs and drums.

>>16927708
Who's Brandon?

>>16927746
Gas was definitely not $5 in 2019. Maybe in Cali-Fornia it was.

>>16929236
Was it though

>>16927693
thaks brandon

>>16929308
it was because i used to buy these weekly

>>16927708
Unless you also blamed Bush for skyrocketing gas prices, shut up, hypocrite.

>>16929465
Don't bother. Conservatism is not, never has been and never will be a consistent ideology.

>>16929465
>>16929706
I always wonder what goes on in the heads of mentally ill posters like these.

>>16927746
Kill yourself, democrat scum.

>>16928011
Ironically, the people who believe that facebook is a liberal-agenda to mind control people and still wear MAGA hats.

>>16927746
bull fucking shit

>>16928116
OP here, I buy bulk fruits and veggies elsewhere. Cool, your engines, hotrods.

>>16929263
Brandon Brown #68 NASCAR. Not joking. However, it is code for "fuck joe biden."

>>16929714
I'm confused as to his point about Conservatism. Though it's also true. It has differed over time in the US, with a modern form being very Fusionist. It also differs dramatically from country to country as the question of what is being conserved differs great. So, Japanese monarchist types, or French National Front types are pretty different.
Or, if he's using conservative as a gloss for Republican, which as a party definitely drifts with as its constituency drifts.
Both things are true of any given political movement over time though.

that's a awful lot of salad dressing.

>>16928010
Do you only go shopping when you are 100% out of stock of everything?
Neither do I. I go to buy what I'm lacking.

>>16929714
Seethe harder cleetus

>>16929816
I remember my first joint.

>>16927818
She's a nice, pleasant octogenarian.

>>16929860
It's pasta sauce

OP Biden is strategically inflating prices in seething redstates and shitholes like staten island, so naturally good americans who live in cultured locations like you and I won't see any problems.

>>16927693
Jesus those are the same prices as in Slovenia and our wages are like 35% lower than in USA. And we're taxed 76%. Fuck me. Just shithole countries feelings

>>16929406
Prove it.

>>16927738
There's no Sales Tax on groceries, but on things considered "candy", it is taxable. In NY anyway..

>>16927693 (OP)
OP can you get a picture of you and Gwen?

>>16929775
Take your shots. Donnie worked really hard to get them made so quickly.

damn our new janny is a fucking cuck lmfao

In NYC most things I buy went up about 50 cents, I'm not really into meat but my mom tells me things that used to be $17 are now $5-$10 more... maybe they're price gouging because the news is fearmongering.

our medium eggs are $1.79 and that's before "inflation" that's a nice price for extra large
