The crackers I used to buy for $2.50 a box are now $5.79 a box.
Eggs at my local store range from $6.50 to $10.99 a dozen.
Gas is $4.09 at the cheapest gas station in town.
Chicken thighs are $12.99 a pound. (I do buy the good kind, not Tyson chicken thighs, which have the texture of rubber bands and taste like hog pens smell.)
Four pounds of dry cat food is $9.95. (I buy Iams, since that is all my cat will eat.)
Apples are a three-pound bag for $3.27.
I almost bought an Asian pear at Harps, but those are $2.99 each.
But Trump says the economy is booming and prices are the lowest they have ever been, so I guess I should quit whining.
(He also says the economy is the fault of Joe Biden, though to be fair that was a different speech.)

Eggs around here (upstate NY) are under $2 a dozen at every store for the store brand. I think that they come from local farms, so shipping costs are not high. Our gas is a bit more expensive than yours--the cheapest in my area is $4.19.
That's an excellent price for eggs. You'd think we'd be getting cheaper eggs, with Tyson putting chicken houses on every empty field.
