Aint that the truth. This household no longer does "chips". Not sure if this is a regional thing, but the bags of (doritos for instance) are barely half full right now. I'm starting to see the same in other soft packaged items (french fries; chicken nuggets, etc..).

Just as well I suppose, most of it is junk food anyway and was easily scratched off our list.

This household either. When Wal-Mart chips went from $1.50 to $1.98 OVERNIGHT, I said Sayonara. Luckily, the local Smiths store has Pringles at $1 a can. I don't like their looks - no character, all clones, but they taste OK.

Items no longer go up a few cents at a time, it's now in increments of 10-20%.
