Fruits are so damn expensive!

I just came back from the grocery store, I bought a small package of grapes and they were 9 dollars! I’m trying to eat healthier but damn fruit is expensive.

We get like half a kilo of grapes for a third of that price here. And that’s not even in the cheap stores. Do you live in Canada?

he insulted me like mods first

We need to stop insulting each other in this thread before it heads towards suspensions. If someone insults you try to just flag it instead of returning an insult.

Technically he didn’t insult you. He just told you some sad things that might actually be true. You insulted him. And you started it.

Stop being a meanie.

The price of everything is going up, here is a graph of the inflation rate over the last year in Canada.

Even the unhealthy stuff is getting expensive in Canada.

Our food where I live in the US is really expensive too. My family may need to start using the food banks again

I shop online and foods are double what they are in the store but we really don’t have a choice.
My father is old and frail and is immunocompromised and I am disabled myself.

It is very difficult for us to shop in person.
