Prices at the grocery store are fine. But restaurant bills are unbearable. They want $9 for a hamburger, fries, and a Coca Cola now. In working class America.Do you worry that your food bill will increase? Due to high oil, corn and wheat prices?
I've already noticed small increases at our local supermarket. A dime here, a quarter there. I don't know if it's justified yet, but they are sure raising the prices. I think everything will go up as oil prices rise, due to shipping cost, and it will eventually have more of an impact on our entire grocery bill.





I have given it a lot of thought to this the last few months and don't really know exactly where I'll cut cost. I've always been pretty good at keeping our grocery bill to a minimum, so there's not much I can cut except snack foods.





We do own 2 full size pickup trucks and drive one of them every day, so that's where our major expense is at the moment. We live in a rural area and need at least one truck, so we are already talking about buying a more economical vehicle.





Planting a garden again is always an option for us, too, but as we've gotten older it's a little harder to get motivated to do something that creates more work. I do suspect our lifestyle will be changing drastically before long because of the high oil and grain prices.
why worry about things you can't do nothing about.
