Inflation: How Much Did You Spend?

[Inversion]

The price for a 1 oz. bottle of oil of oregano from Amazon has gone from $30 to $41. If they sold 10 oz. bottles it would be $410. It's really good stuff and knocks down cold symptoms.

UpNature sells their 4oz bottle of oregano oil for $9.99. (That's the brand I use all the time. )

Went to buy a head of cauliflower at the local grocery store today.
$8.99 a head!
Did not buy it, no. I wonder if they will actually sell any at that price?

I was in the grocery store this morning and a dozen eggs are now $6.50 USD & just under $9 for 18.

This post has an approximate number of chickens dead or destroyed since 2021.

I bought a whole organic chicken, just of normal/medium size for the dogs at the house where I am working weekends ( as a Season's gift to them ) : $27 and change. As a reference point, when I was heading into my 20s in the mid 1980s a whole chicken cost roughly $3.99. I mean, I know things cost a lot, this one just hit me plenty.

The positive side, we return to the local. No more sweet potatoes that come from the United States. In France, the trend is towards recycling, furniture, clothing, manual activities, homemade is much better and more ecological and better for our health.

Just published by the UK's The Sun: (which has hitherto been fiercely anti-Russia)

• https://thesun.co.uk/news/19698308/r...sanctions-food

Their headline:

SANCS A LOT: Welcome to sanction-hit Russia, where prices are DOWN as Brits suffer from soaring inflation

Food costs are also coming down every month and Vladimir Putin’s people are partying as if there is no war.

I really had not paid much attention to this thread but when I finally did check it out this chart jumped off the page at me. Russia's inflation rate, based on three economic reporting agencies and one being the central bank of Russia the inflation rate was expected to be between 11-12% in 2022. The real number turned out to be 12.6% for the year. Not unlike the west the Bank of Russia is forecasting that the annual inflation will drop to 5.0–7.0% in 2023 and then return to 4% in 2024." That being the case (which I think is somewhat believable) then how could the prices for groceries be going down during a very high inflationary period? Everything I read including the Sun article which is the source for the chart says that Putin is subsidizing grocery prices.

So if Putin is actually subsidizing prices this does not bode well for him or the long-term outlook of the economy. Whatever source you care to use tells us that young Russian men are losing their lives in the Ukraine war in great numbers. If the Russian people had to put up with the tremendous loss of life and at the same time be subjected to rapidly increasing prices for everyday items it tells us that Putin's grip on power is tenuous at best.

Fuel is the one constant for Putin, without it subsidies would be doable but not sustainable in the long run. He is performing a delicate balancing act that could crumble around him if the price of fuel plummets for any protracted length of time.

I was stunned to hear from a (wealthy) relative yesterday who reported that many of her neighbors are turning their front yards into vegetable gardens. She is in Santa Monica. Granted, they are likely doing it for the trendiness and enviromental concern... but still it is a pretty cool trend, almost like the Victory Garden days. I always admired that idea of Victory Gardens being encouraged in those days.

Santa Monica doesn't count, lol, ( it is a world unto itself ). In the past I might have meant this in a good way, I definitely would have, but anymore, wow, no..........It is beautiful, don't get me wrong, but it feels like something dark has taken over and infiltrated the people. It's hard to explain. It has grown to be elitist and is the height of how California itself stands in regard to the current global 'thing'. Sorry I went on a bit of a rant there. Let me come back to the topic. Food costs a lot there. Like crazy a lot. My $27+ chicken would have cost way more. I once ate a restaurant on Main Street, no prices on the menu ( common for the area ), I ordered the ravioli and received 5 whole ravioli spread wide on a plate for the bargain price of something like $30.

I was recently in Berlin and everything except transportation seemed very inexpensive to me. A good meal out was half what I'm used to. A bottle of Johnnie Walker Red, about $32 in the US, was only €10. Groceries were quite affordable. I have no idea why, but I definitely noticed.

Same here :-(

1 Dozen eggs went from 1.98$ to 4.98$.
Guess I'm guying chickens. (If they're not banned yet that is..)

Everything has gone up in price in Texas it seems. More and more people ask me how to start a home garden. I trade with my neighbors for goods I cannot raise myself. It is a habit we should all get into. I fear for those who live paycheck to paycheck and cannot get food on the table for their families. But population decrease is part of the grand plan.

Yes the shortage of eggs and rise in price is being attributed to “Avian flu and having to destroy infected chickens “.

I’ve been able to get two dozen organic eggs for $7.59 which were only under a dollar more than two dozen nonorganic eggs, last week.

In France, we had the demonstration of the bakers, bread being the emblem of the country, the energy crisis went through there. Rising prices will bring order to this consumerist society.
Politics has done everything to boost the electric car, the French who responded to the state's offer, felt fooled after the increase in electricity in the end charging the electric car costs more than gasoline, another scam. In recent years the meat has been doubled and even tripled due to organic products whose real motive was to increase the price.
I'm near a big city and here the houses are sprouting up like mushrooms in a laboratory and not leaving much room for a garden. Even if we can find collective or associative gardens, they are quite far from my home. There is a shared garden, in 2022 nothing has been planted... We just have to adapt to the changes to come

You don’t need much room to grow a few veggies really. Have you ever heard of the book, “Square foot gardening?” It’s a good book for small space gardening, and container gardening is another option for folks who live in apartments you can still grow herbs and tomatoes or other veggie goodies that do well in containers? I grew pumpkins in a small five foot square one year in the front yard and my neighbor laughed at me because he thought the wild life would eat my plants before they grew. I didn’t have a fence around them. Didn’t happen though, I got five huge pumpkins which lasted me several months.

Very slightly off-topic, but I thought this was might be interesting to many. (To convert the prices to $/gallon, multiply by 3.785.)

I was in Walmart today and their candy section only had about 1/3 the normal products on the shelves. There was nothing under $6.50 USD and they were small bags. I can see grocery stores morphing over the next year where entire sections are gone due to engineered shortages and extreme prices.

Our natural gas bill has doubled from $100 per month to $200 USD. They said on a radio talk show that it could triple or quadruple. This is orchestrated to turn the screws on us. People will be turning off their gas valve and they'll have no heat, no hot water and won't be able to cook. Knowing them like I do this is a test run for something bigger they have planned in the near future which is more than likely connected to the depopulation agenda.

The Aliso Canyon gas leak happened in 2015. Had that thing completely ruptured a lot of people would have died. The calculations I made during the event was they had 184 cubic miles of gas stored underground at 2,700 psi.

Here's the Illuminati playing car that matches that event.
