really? sure, things are more expensive, sure but I havent been spending an extra $11.5k. if I did that i’d have probably zero savings. dunno where they get these numbers from
Idk my wife and I are very secure financially so we don’t worry about most things but I am still in awe of the increase in grocery prices. We’re in the states, and for our basic non perishable items I order from Walmart. For meat and produce I typically buy from local grocery stores due to quality. Sometimes I’ll forget or have to buy things from the grocery store that I’d normally buy at Walmart, and those things are AT LEAST 50% more. In some cases I have seen 100% increase in prices, and an overall increase of at least 25 % from the previous year, which is insane.
I have no idea how families on a strict budget are managing groceries, let alone other living expenses. $11.5k does seem slightly exaggerated, but not by much.
I wouldn’t say it went up that much but I’m definitely seeing it in my grocery runs. Haven’t changed habits that much but it’s easily $15-17 more per trip than it used to be.
