Just like my sushi guy. On the plus side, Costco hotdog is still a buck fifty, although the onions and kraut is gone

metre is longer than a yard!

litre is bigger than a quart

Well............. Trudeau is directly involved in legalizing" THE POT". Could not resist!!!

When was the last time you bought a burger that actually looked like the picture? Sometimes the patty is invisible.

Buy local they say. I had a craving for a simple bologna sandwich, untill I saw it was 10 bux for a 375mg pkg.

I'm not saying the Turd is "directly responsible", just that the whole "bring a product to market, let the masses indulge, then slowly downsize said product" scheme seemed to be more widespread & effect more things I regularly buy - once the Libs took over.

A form of "Justin flation"...

It all started with the 'Wagon Wheel'. Used to be the size of clay pigeons, cost 5 cents. Now they're like a cookie, no idea what they cost.

There is a difference between price gouging and inflation. Why is it not inflation?
