Seeing some of the same in Nebraska. And ground beef is very high, around $5/lb, I think. But we bought a whole roasting chicken, about 6 lbs IIRC, for $.99/lb last week. It’s what’s for dinner.
Butter frequently had been under $3/lb for quite a long time, now goes on sale for $3.88/lb.
Seemingly I am paying MUCH more attention to what is on sale, stocking up more on sale items that we will always use, just trying to outsmart the system as much as possible.
But NOW, when everyone else is saying things are leveling or dropping, NOW it went up by 25% to 50%, sometimes 100%.
