Stop being so fat

>>55207307
Go to shoprite instead

Not fat. A small box of cherios is now $5.50 compared to $3.50 a year ago, and $2.50 in 2018 or so.

Same even in walmart. This isn't about my frugality or about how much food I eat, everything has shot up astronomically in price and there is no way salaries can keep up, if they even tried it would lead to most places just closing down or overhead costs being shifted around and you're back to where we started.

Walmart sells 60 eggs for $16, a loaf of white bread for $1.50, and a gallon of milk for $3.80. Buy a 5lb bag of cheese for $19, a jumbo bag of shrimp for $15 and a family bag of tilapia or swai for $18. Buy a family sized spring mix for $5, some lunch meat and cheese for $10. Add in some rice and pasta.

There you go man, a lot of protein and enough fiber you won't die. That's how we do it in this shithole now. It will take 5 years for salaries to catch up. Good luck, I'm stressing about it too. A break job with rotors is fucking $1,200 now. I can't even repair my car or I go broke.

Anyone thinking about coming to America right now is stupid. This place is on a highway to hell uniroincally, everything here sucks right now.

You don't need indigestible fiber in your diet. People with constipation issues do best on a low to no fiber diet

You need fiber to maintain your gut biome.

Literally paid over $100 for this few weeks ago. Shit is going crazy

>>55207511
Yeah that's what we call a 'recession' and it's usually what stops runaway inflation, that and immigration control since there are 370 million people in this country, 205 million 'whites' and 165 million 'ooga boogas' and 50 million of the oogas are not citizens or anchor babies and need to go back.

good news is you won't need retirement savings with that diet

>free range organic pampered eggs from my local market: $5/dozen
>Kroger brand extra cruelty goyslop eggs: $4.50/dozen
I used to buy fucking cheap eggs for $0.99/dozen as recent as like 2017 what a fucking disaster. Glad I'm not poor but how the fuck are normies going to make it?

>>55207807
Yeah I've noticed this too. Now the processed dogshit store-brand slop costs almost the same as premium items at the grocery store. What the fuck man? There's no way the average joe doesn't stress on basic necessities these days. Let alone real estate absurdity.
If you didn't come from money it's going to get very difficult to move upwards financially.

stop n shop is charging me .10 a bag now and their weekly mailer had rainbows on it. fuck them. market basket for now on

I just paid $4.29 for a gallon of milk. The rest of what you posted isn't that great. Cheap cheese isn't cheese, its just hydrogenated vegetable oil. Actual cheese is best to buy in bulk online on big cheese wheels. I make my own bread but the ingredients to make it have also gone up proportionally in price.
For protein its cheaper to just buy protein powder which I still do to supplement (170g protein total per day) but I of course need natural sources which are mainly comprised of chicken and beef. Speaking of beef, its gone up from just under 5 dollars a lb of ground beef up to 8 dollars from 2017 to 2023. My salary is only $87k and while I could "afford" to live comfortably, thats not sustainable unless I intend to never retire.

>brake job with rotors
decent power stop rotors are 60 bucks each on rockauto. You could get all the parts even to bleed the brakes yourself, and if you already have most tools you can save 800 dollars. If you need all the tools you can still do it assuming an hour of your work isn't worth 200 dollars or something. I'm really into old JDM cars and have kept mine pristine for an average cost of $1200 a year in parts since I got the car (1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 with 245k miles, total spreadsheet expenses since 2015 sum up to ~22k, cost to own average 2750 per year and declining, not accounting for gas expenses). I'm really into cars if you need tips or help on how to get started and do your own brakes or something.

paper bags are 10 cents here as well. Don't forget to round up from $300 to $301 to donate to their tax deduction fund :), pretty soon we'll get asked to tip the guy attending 12 self checkout registers as well.
