    Seems like it costs much more to buy much less the past few months.

                      I haven’t seen a porkchop or much pork in a grocery store in nearly 2 months. There is virtually no more pork.

                            A few things have gone up but it's mainly that stores have been putting way less stuff on sale, and with so much stuff out of stock you often have to buy a more expensive version of what your looking for.

                                              That's not our average but that's what I saw we spent in that timeframe. Oddity though because we bought lots of stuff to get ahead like meats and extra dry food.

                                              Normal times I say we spend $300 a week plus $150 more on takeout.

                                                          Normal times I say we spend $300 a week plus $150 more on takeout.
                                                          true sounds about right. i usually goto siderno meats in maple
