I went to buy milk the other day and it was over $8 a gallon.
Have you also noticed all the produce is shit, and they're letting it all sit out way longer than they used to? My theory is they're doing it to try to hide the shortage.
Yes! It's almost as though they're intentionally leaving it out so they can pretend to have more selection than reality.
They're also using whatever they have to fill up empty produce spots. It's kind of strange to see giant bags of carrots filling up half the refrigerator section plus two bins in the loose potatoes & onion areas.
Greens are so bad I've started growing sprouts at home.
My living situation is cityfied at the moment so a full garden is out of the question, but I'll see what I can do in pots on my back porch in the spring.
I noticed when I went down south weeks ago the grocery store was abundant with good food, so at least I don't have to worry about my family yet so I've got that going for me.
Not really cause I grow my own produce and in the spring I will finally have my own milk.
Sucks big time.
They're def playing with the "sell by" dates on dairy products. I had a gallon of milk spoil two days after I bought it, expiration date on the cap claimed I should have another week. Another similar situation with some ricotta cheese.
I've been buying milk products in smaller qtys 2x per week for a while now.
The cheapest I've been able to find a gallon of whole milk is $6.50
