Nope. That went up over here. Shiner bock at circle K's is 12.99...used to be 9.99 or 10.99 at the fancier gas stations like shell! LOL

If i was in the mood for a buzz on the cheap I used to be able to get 4 shiner tall boys for like just over $7. Now its just under $9. Crawford bocks AND yuenglings gone up 2 bucks for the 6 pack too. Thats at my local/regional grocery store thats known for being cheap (they honestly give walmart competition on some things)....albertsons prices on beer went up about a buck or 2 last i checked there too.

I would like to thank Mr. Biden for bringing my drinking in check...i think my posts the last 1-2 months reflect this change

Hasn't affected my drinking but I rarely drink beer any more. Whiskey prices are holding steady. When I do drink beer I never buy it at convenience stores.

Get the sausage biscuit $2 bundle. $2 gets you a sausage biscuit and a hash brown. Add $1 for a soft drink and it's a nice full breakfast for $3.24 total.

But I'd always go to Braums first

Eat the imported shrimp. It comes from the Mekong Delta and you won't need a flashlight at night.

More sticker shock today for my cheap a**. I have been buying those little pies and cakes at Walmart for the past few years; you know, the single serving ones in the bakery department. I usually get the apple or the peach and heat one up in the microwave to have with a cup of coffee when I sit down to watch tv. In addition to the little pies, the cinnamon and Louisiana Crunch cakes are really good too. Today I go into pick up 4 of the Louisiana Crunch cakes and they have gone from 50 cents to 74 cents. Spoke to the manager of the bakery and she said they had to make them up a week ago. Now, it looks like only a 24 cent increase which, even for a cheapskate like me isn't much, but when you do the math, it is actually a 48% hike.

I told the wife I need to take a run into the ghetto part of town to see if the bakery outlet has any deals left or if they are stocked with $10 loaves of bread.

You will burn more in gas than the ,24

48% is 48% whether you're starting at 50 cents or $50. Bacon has gone up 60% and the coffee you drink with those little cakes is up 20% or more. Patty sausage has gone up 60% as well. With gas up 260% most of us are facing inflation of probably 40% to 50% on the consumables we most commonly buy...maybe more. My fuel bill has gone up $400 to $500 per month. Food is hundreds more, too.

How much has everyone's pay gone up? Unless you just signed a huge new free agent deal with the Dolphins, probably not nearly enough to offset inflation. The alleged party of the little guy is strangling him.

Agreed. I can't remember the last time I set foot in a McD's but it has been a lot of years.

im still looking for that 8% inflation they keep talking about. Everything Im paying for seems to be 20-30% plus not 10ish percent....at all!
