I just got home from a routine shopping trip. Sticker shock!
First stop: grocery store. Chicken broth (32 oz) now $1.00 MORE per carton.
Second stop: gas station. Price per gallon now $3.599, when I last bought gas seven weeks ago it was $2.799. That's an $0.80 per gallon INCREASE. The difference between what I got today vs what I got last time (for the same amount of money) was 0.83 gallon LESS.
A dollar here, a dollar there. It may not sound like much. But it all adds up. Pretty soon we're talking budget-busting money.
