Price rises/ inflation

[Sheena]

I noticed that 2 for £3 bags of grated cheddar are now 2 for £3.25 in Tesco. And it's been on offer 2 for £3 FOREVER AND A DAY.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END, PEOPLE.

Apparently the prices will be even higher after the summer when the effects from the war will kick in. Or so I read somehwhere.

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Regarding pay rises; it’s a fucking joke to get 1.5% rise when the inflation is the double of that, but if anything cements higher inflation is higher wages, so let’s hope we don’t get stuck in that viscious cycle like it was in the 70’s and 80’s (here).

but if anything cements higher inflation is higher wages

Only if companies pass along the cost to the consumer, rather than taking it out of their often MASSIVE profits.

No idea but SPAM FRITTERS are quickly selling out in my local Iceland

Maybe I’m a bit devil may care but I never really notice things (food, specifically) costing more than it did. I am however quite aggrieved that Lidl appear to have stopped selling that cheap and abrasive (aka VERY NICE) espresso in a tin. SAVAGES!

Well clearly someone has a bit of disposable income

Just STEAL!

I certainly don’t choose to be poor

Put it this way: if I want broccoli I’ll buy broccoli. I’m not going to buy SPROUTS instead just because they’re 25 pence cheaper!

Amen to that

And they say silver
I CHOOSE GOLD
WAOH OWAHHHH

We all know YOU do that but I’ve tasted the innards of a cell after being caught lifting and I’m NOT going there again

 

[Cerro de Casa]

(In all seriousness though it's never a bad time to invest in GOLD if you do have the cash. Broccoli can wait darling )

My pesto went up 50p in tesco

My pesto went up 50p in tesco

Which brand? Must be a posh one. Go for Tesco's own. That should be 50p outright surely. Or maybe make your own - that'll also work out cheaper.

 

[Inner Smile]

Sacla now £2.75 Yeah I got the tesco one instead for 90p but not tried it yet

 

[Soldi]

Oh I have loads of Sacla and a VARIETY of flavours. £20 per jar dm me x

 

[Inner Smile]

£20 per jar dm me x

Any extras x

 

[GinAg (39)]

Have you all heard of Aldi and Lidl?

 

[Inner Smile]

Go to Aldi sometimes but its too small and no real variety

“50p outright”

Actuslly the Tesco one is fine

 

[Alias #23]

I have to say that I’d not buy their own brand pesto. I think I tried it once and NO

Fatty favourites such as that Lidl jumbo lasagne are however a different matter

 

[Alias #23]

Take a WILD guess

Surely everyone in the country already has Gold so there isn’t much room for growth. You’d stand a better chance of making money if you invest in More ABBA Gold.

I can't believe Rishi Sunak didn't address the pesto crisis in his spring budget. Evil gremlin.

Just kick the walls in if you’re feeling claustro. However, how much variety do you want? The whole point of it is the SOVIET STYLE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE!

I prefer the lack of choice.

Me too. Waitrose is all very well but how many choices of pasta shapes does one REALLY need?

JUST EAT MUD.

 

[Inner Smile]

Fusilli for me

Just the Peppa Pig ones have always been good enough for me.
