Food prices in my area have been slowly going up for well over a year - I was with my daughter the other day and she wanted to buy some hand lotion - I was stunned at the prices - $11 for hand lotion and that particular item was on sale marked down from $13 - who pays $13 for hand lotion - my daughter certainly didn’t - we went to Walmart instead and got their brand of lotion for I think it was three bucks and it had the same ingredients as the thirteen dollar job
