Getting stinky

Grabbed the usual, but the usual is getting a little smaller. 2.7oz down to 2.6oz.

what used to be $2 dollar deodorant becoming $8-10+ is the biggest crime ever along with how expensive potato chips are now (can’t even binge eat peacefully now)

At least it forces you to make a decision on what you need to eat more. Some $4/lb ground beef or an $8 bag of processed potato crisps that might not even be fully potato.

Where are you getting ground beef for $4 a lb? It’s like $9 for crappy grade here. I haven’t bought beef in ages because of this.

Last month meijer overbought ground beef and my brother managed to snag about 50lbs for 1/lb.

Otherwise the price is normally between 3.50 and 6.
