Still shocked about food prices ๐Ÿ˜•

It's a battle at the supermarket, everyday it's a constant " scanning " price's around the shop, my personal ways of shopping have definitely changed, I only buy products that have lasted the test of " time " I stick with certain products, but things have changed, I refuse to buy hienz soup, even the ketchup has reached its price tag, Cadbury chocolate was a favourite of mine, but it tastes " greasy" and expensive for what it is , I will stick with fairly washing up liquid,and lurpak butter. I'm actually in shock that some food items have security tags on, it's been caused by covid

" apparently " but we all know its a cost of greed by the supermarket's, the security tags are mainly to discourage shop lifters, the cost of living has pushed many food items beyond an average wage, we are getting spanked by the utility companies, and the cost of electricity has influenced the cost of food, the recent budget will affect food prices even more, but the supermarket needs to keep the shareholders happy.

I'm feeling there's a push on most people on society, its been a battle for those on benefits, and now its crept into the next groups, the

Worker's are now being dragged into this fiscal mess, the growth in the UK will be extremely low, it's the Worker's who generate money and the trickle down economics aren't working, it's been a graduation of people being sucked into lower living standards, and paying more, and yes getting less and less every year, there's going to an end plan, but how far it will continue I haven't got a clue, perhaps the food banks and charities are expected to pick up the slack, we are losing vital communication due to everything being done online, and nobody is held accountable for these " actions " society is in a slow meltdown and whilst politicians are quaffing champagne and eat lobster, they are invisible towards the real world, there's no crumble left on the table anymore ๐Ÿ™„

It's a sly trick, people now are being conned, and I'm onto all those big companies who rip us off, going shopping is like trying to pick who you vote for, I'm never voting again, it's a vote to keep the "establishment " extremely rich, I'm fed up with the greed at the top, dispatches the other night showed those at the top are constantly picking the " Ripe " fruit from the top of the tree!

Hello Cb...i agree completely with what you say, the cost of everything is crippling, and things don't increase with a penny its in the several shillings. The supermarkets are making a killing and even in the reduced section the savings are barely worth having and i hate the attitude of many places, their answer is if you want it you're going to pay.

I was shocked to see Horlicks well over ยฃ4, its outrageous.

In my local Tesco they now have a Rowes Cornish bakery, and their pasties are truly vile, its a hard pastry and barely any filling, however they reduced their Cheese, bacon and cranberry turnover to ยฃ1.65, and i ended up buying one, but when i got home non of it was edible, it was more suitable for filling pot holes in the road and i was livid, if i didn't live so far out of town i would have taken it back, it was disgusting.๐Ÿ˜ซ

Yes the products are pretty awful, especially when you're paying top whack, I've tried different pie's from tesco and the so called steak content is barely noticeable and I threw it out for the seagulls!!!I tried " Ski" yogurts the other day, the first time in about 45 years; they were watery and had no fruit content it's all down to this so called healthy eating fad, the biggest problem is that kids aren't doing enough exercise and spending to much time on electronic devices, and cheaper foods are now used as " bulk " items pizza, chips, and food full of processed ingredients the countries health is on a slippery slope, and dare I say the word F#T or obesity is a ticking time bomb , my mum and dad worked extremely hard, we had home made meals, and I suppose the cheapest meal was the vista meal; with those crispy fries, but we ate healthily and loads of out door exercise, football, even cricket and picked for cross country running from the school, and now using injections to make people lose weight, boy , it's become a massive problem!

Yes ironic side effect I have diabetes 2 but the cost of food has meant, just less food, very deep looking at what is available, don't try those Maryland choc biscuits, they taste burnt, my sister tasted one and just threw the whole packet out๐Ÿคฎ I use foxes choc biscuits just to pep up my 'desserts'๐Ÿ‘Œ, Tescos medical 'substitutes' bad for your health, usually short of prescribed ingredients, keep away from those! The Tesco "fast foods" take a look at the ingredients, [dangerous๐Ÿคฌ] might taste 'agreeable' but long term effects๐Ÿค So I've lost weight despite using their club cards!๐Ÿ™„

I was in Tesco Express the other day and noticed how a normal sized packet of giant chocolate buttons is now priced at ยฃ1.95. 4 years ago it was ยฃ1. Its just an example of how fast prices keep rising.

I do much more of my shopping now at Lidl's and Farm Foods and even the Pound shop. Even Iceland which used to be reasonable assumes everyone who shops there has a big family with their silly buy 3 for a fiver but one costs ยฃ2.30. I don't buy much there now. As for the Co-Op it went well out of my price range last year.

Another touch of irony, electric prices to much, eating more salads vegetables, fruit, cold food, can't afford to heat food, a hot meal about twice a week! I was written a letter about three weeks ago that my electric for next month would be ยฃ94, since then Two repeat letters telling me prices will be going up, my average monthly electric bill was ยฃ138, [two years ago ยฃ64๐Ÿ™„], one of the main reasons for me downsizing/moving house[plus my bad health] so๐Ÿ‘†yours Power NI๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

'Liebour'? After all the lies the torLIES told and increased 10 fold with BoZo the biggest liar of the lot.

Labour have been in office just 4 months and they are taking steps to sorting out the tory complete disasters over 14 long austerity years. Unless people approve of record immigration, record NHS waiting lists, levels of debt not seen since WW2?

People must also agree with the highest gap between the have and have nots for many years after 14 years of tory disasters.

I presume some also disagree with unions? And the ordinary workers getting a bigger share of the wealth they help create instead of an increasing share going to the rich elites.

I presume you are aware of the tories adding together the state pension and any other income to screw more tax out of us pensioners. Along with their frozen tax thresholds especially the lower ones which have dragged me and many pensioners back into the income tax net again and costing me ยฃ445 this year.

Labour are.

1. Paying the junior doctors more to try and keep them rather than driving them abroad. The same ones who for many years only got a 1% rise if any at all.

2. Having proper plans in place to try and stop the boats, but it will take longer than 4 months. They are also trying to increase funding to border services and hopefully the backlog will fall. Unlike the tories Starmer has said they will be building migrants centres rather than using hotels.

3. Co-operating with the rest of Europe for the benefit of the country instead of just antagonising them because they know you catch more flies with honey rather than vinegar,

4. Have plans in place to reduce NHS waiting lists.

5. Labour want to build more council housing stock to replaced that which was sold off starting with Thatcher.

I suggest people stop blindly believing everything they are told and look at all sides before making up their minds.

now that President Trump is back in office. I think we will see some relief. If he starts drilling again, it should help stimulate our economy much like after World War II, which turned us into the superpower. We are today incidentally, the US sells the cleanest oil in the entire world. Unfortunately, once grocery prices go up itโ€™s hard to get them to come back down. . I do think you will see a different country now that President Trump is back! What bothers me mainly is that the CCP has been infiltrating our higher learning institutions for many years itโ€™s like Joseph Stalin said Mack in World War II, Iโ€™ll bring the United States down without firing a shot. From within. The Chinese communist party is already working on Stalinโ€™s because we have children that think the holocaust was a mess. I see LGBTQ flags flying in support of Palestine. What these kids donโ€™t know is were they over there now they would be thrown from the highest building in Palestine to their death.. I think I was blessed to have my son heโ€™s 25 but has a good head on his shoulders. Heโ€™s neither Democrat or Republican, his self or libertarian, but he did vote for Trump. I think it was like the Leicester of too evil for him, but he knew what it would take to get the country back on track and I respect him for that. I know food prices are ridiculous. Letโ€™s just hope they come down some and can bring us all some relief because Iโ€™m on a fixed income being on disability and my wife is too.

Yes totally agree with prices soaring. The other day I went in to just get some fruits and vegetables and walked away with minimal items. I was shocked as my husband normally gets things from the supermarket. I told him that I would rather get the seasonal produce from our market stall. Thankfully we found a lovely market stall were you can actually taste the difference in quality produce. And I love the fact they are one pound for a bowl. For example sometimes I can get 3 aubergine ๐Ÿ† for a pound. Supermarket sell one for 95p. I even bought 2 bunches of parsley for a pound. Whereas less than one bunch costs over a pound. The tomatoes ๐Ÿ… on the stall actually smells like tomatoes and tastes like them. Growing up I was always going to the market stalls with my parents to make ends meet. Have a great day all ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

I know what you mean. I feel blessed to find the one I have. It is only one stall. But I can't go anywhere else. I have had a fair share of bad luck.

It wasn't just the money aspect but also carrying it on the bus and walking home with it. It was so heavy. ๐Ÿ˜ซ another time I remember the stall holder said I will give u some from the back. I was on my lunchbreak and I love persimmon and they gave me rotten ones. Luckily I checked them at work and I threw them away and avoided those stalls. How do they sleep at night?

Hi CB1963.

U are 100% correct & I supermarkets & some manufacturerers are racketeering by forcing prices to rise almost every month & the vast majority of us are now forced to live in poverty.

My personal shopping has shrunk in the amount I buy yet the costs spiral & this is at the traditional shops that were seen as budget supermarkets are full of those of us trying to get value for money but it feel like a hopeless task. Even our bills have gone up & this year it's the water bills that have jumped up & we can't even move to a competitor as there isn't any but I believe that bonuses will be handed out come end of year costs.

We can only hope that something is done to stop this racketeering & prices come down .

I wish us all a far better end of the year & cheaper 2025.

I have a different take as I live in America and capitalism works. I think now that President Trump is going back in the office. He will free up more disposable income for American citizens. Grocery stores donโ€™t maliciously raise prices as I worked my way through college in one and understand pricing. They are offered to buy items at the cost the manufacturer offers them they have no choice, but to raise their prices if they want to make a profit and letโ€™s face it without making a profit, they couldnโ€™t pay their employees. The problem is once manufactures raise the price that they sell to the grocery stores itโ€™s hard to get them back down.only competition will do that and I got a feeling thatโ€™s about to happen. I wish I could be on a more healthy diet but one thing I do is Iโ€™m on a rigorous sleep schedule. I wake up at 5 AM every morning feeling like Iโ€™ve been in the boxing ring with Mike Tyson. Iโ€™ll take my meds then about an hour later I get up and Iโ€™ll start moving. I donโ€™t know how long Iโ€™ll to be vertical and moving so I donโ€™t want to miss any opportunity. Goodness, I even skydive a month ago. Sometimes when Iโ€™m going through the parking lot of a grocery store, I canโ€™t wait to get to a shopping cart because my gate is off I take ampyra which helps me pick my legs up and to be honest with you. You really donโ€™t know itโ€™s helping until you go without it. Iโ€™ll try to see the glass of water half full. I wish you well and all that you do and hope the best for you.
