I'm curious to know what the price is like around the world. No need to state where you're from, maybe country or state/province if you feel comfortable but prices here in the US are all over the place, illogically so. Where I live specifically, it's usually one of the last places where we see prices go up, unlike those living in California or NY for example which sees it first.

The price of Beef Jerky (small) starts at $8-10 per pack but before it was around $3-4. Toilet paper is $15 for 18 rolls, which used to be $8 or so.

Eating out at McDonalds or anywhere else will set you back around $12 per person, more if you plan on getting the more premium items.

Electricity has effectively almost doubled, at this rate it would be better to go solar which you would see your investment pay off within 5 years insted of 10 due to the crazy price increase in electricity.

Almost everything has doubled in price here and based off of what politicians are saying between the lines, the inflation has increased by about 20-30% this year alone. Last year it had already increased by about 30%.

I bought a dehydrator and started to dehydrate my own stuff and things that will expire soon. I'm pretty far into my garden work as well so I should be self sufficient for veggies and flowers (for tea and herbal stuff!) with hopefully enough supply to get through the next season once everything can be harvested. I make my own bread now too. We will be living like in the great recession most probably by next year, everything is being purposefully destroyed so we have nothing. I won't go into politics and explain it all but people will starve and it's already happening.

Everyone I know is fed up with this illegitimate admin and worried about the things to come. It will get worse, be sure to be prepared when it does. The cost of poultry for example is going to go through the roof even more very soon.

This is a really interesting topic! I think the prices of most things have gotten very expensive and there is a loooot more crime now. The local news was reporting that everyone should lock everything and install cameras because there are so many thiefs now. Even the elderly are stealing from grocery stores.
