This was one of the most fun threads in the old place. Any grievances you'd like to air?

I know we are all experiencing it. But I’ll just go ahead and say it: inflation sucks!

I used to love doing the weekly shop. But now it’s so depressing. It’s always a game of which products has shrink/changed ingredients/become total ass. Margarine is down 20g. Cheese is a completely different blend. Anpanman bread sticks are missing a stick. And so on. Do they think we wouldn’t notice? But what choice do we have?

Also, with the latest events in Ukraine flour and related products are bound to go up in price. But salaries…

Nothing seriously, but found out all the summer limited alcohol drinks suck. Tried many of them from Lawson near me.
