Inflation


Inflation hits everyone in ways big and small. Banner has powerful jaws that allow him to break bones and eat the toughest rawhide. He is selective in what chew toys he likes.

After a year of experimenting, I’ve settled on this product. It takes him months to destroy one and his vet likes the condition of Banner’s teeth and gums.

Bottom line? In two years the prices has gone up from $14 to $21.

At this rate I may need to start a GoFundMe for Banner chew toys.

Couldn't find my tube of 3M Super Weatherstrip Adhesive, so I went out to get some more.

The last tube I bought a couple of years ago was $5~$6. This time it was almost $15. Same with some RTV gasket sealer I bought. The stuff is $14 now.

Ouch. Have you noticed the price of WD-40 lately?

LL said...

Prices are insane across the board. I go into sticker shock. I'm headed to Costco in the morning and may need to bring smelling salts.

Not lately. I have a few cans, but I don't use it much, as I like PB Blaster! for what I do. I'm sure it's $8/can these cays.

Yep....$8.50 for an 8oz can.....

I have a can of PB Blaster in The trunk. Works well.

One goal this week is to increase my six month supply of coffee.

I am investing in shoes, coffee, socks, underwear and other stuff that I will need in the future and is cheaper now.
Cordless batteries beat me to it. Triple the price of last year.

Last year wild bird seed at Costco was $15.97. Last week I paid $27.95.

I'm with LL on this.

Look what the Left's done.

Made us poorer.

Everything they do produces the exact opposite of its intended result.

exact opposite of its intended result.
Opposite of their publicly stated goals.

Dogs are as individual as we.
A friend recommended a chewy to us because their varmint LOVED 'em.

It was a process with Banner. He was indifferent to several I bought before these chewys.

Yes, I won the dog lottery with him.
