• Inflation in May was 10.5% CPC.

    Above the average of 8.5%.
    Went to Walmart yesterday for food shopping, was shocked that my favorite, Large 3 meat lasagna was all most $17. Last year, use to be $12.
    Use to buy Diet Ginger Ale soft drink in bottle for $1 or $1.25, now it's $2. Meats, milk, bread everything is up 30-40% in prices.
    Gal milk is $6, the great value milk is $4.90.
    Premium gas is $7/gal here the Shell gas station, There are cheaper options out there, but this one is close to me.
    Diesel cost even more.
    Get ready for the EV car revolution, I think!

    Agreed. My Son does all the shopping, and he reports outrageous prices for meat and fish. And that is at COSTCO !
    We gave up on the regular Grocery Stores.
