Inflation Watch Thread - Holy Guacamole
I guess some of that liquidity is hitting the system now. Just went grocery shopping and stopped at the Fish Market. After that I went to Target to pick up a foam roller. $3 avocado, really? $43 a pound for King Crab up $5lb. in just the last week. $30.76 a pound for Halibut. Target had a foam roller for $26.95 plus tax for a piece of friggen foam. Hello Amazon. Went to SF the other day and got two martini’s. The damage, $30 plus tax and tip and some other fee they hitting customers up for these days to pay for their employees health care, all for a couple splashes of vodka. The black market is really going to start flourishing. I already source and buy all of my food directly in Southern Oregon and bring it back down with me. It’s all cash only, even the butcher. I would like to have those kinds of contacts here but it is a lot harder. Southern Oregon is a unique place. So what’s it like where you live and where are you seeing inflation and how are you dealing with it? Unfortunately I think this is just the very beginning especially when it comes to quality food.

There is a lot of truth the that. Right now a lot of ranchers are selling off because there is limited natural feed due to drought conditions. After that cattle supply goes through the market, the price will sky rocket down the road. I'm going to run out within the next two weeks and buy a half a beef, I'm due.

I am getting a side of beef and pork and pack the freezer. I love Southern Oregon. Super high quality black market meats at great prices.

I know that 20 oz bone in Ribeye at Longhorn is now an 18 oz Bone in for the same price...

How far down the road before the drought hits meat prices at the supermarket?

The price of Beef should be going down. The stockyards are full of cattle. People are selling off because they don't have hay and will not be able to afford grain and trying to purchase hay from the parts of the country that is not droughts stricken. Chicken is another meat that is climbing quickly.

Interest rates need to go up in this country for a recovery to happen.....
3% for a house but 30% for a credit card rate is a major part of that....


Weird thing is that when America quits buying something the prices are suppose to go down but food prices are skyrocketing.

Fired up the smoker today. Slow cooked a huge pork loin, a pork butt, about 10-12 chicken breasts and some hot dogs. Turned out really well.

Your statement is like saying 'my rudimentary understanding is that Matt Cassel and defensive miscues kept us out of the playoffs, not our win/loss record.'

There's some property literally one house down from me. I think you would make a fine neighbor.

Inflation is happening all over the supermarket and has been for a year or two.

Priced ground coffee lately? It's outrageous.

Chicken is the one thing I can't get cheap directly if I want organic free range chickens. I think I paid about $3.75 a pound last year.
