Well, it's "only" $ 8 at my local Walmart. Pssst, if you're lucky enough to have one, Trader Joes is cheaper.
Oh absolutely and just don't stop at the beef section go through and price check everything and then show them put on a nice little slideshow real slow so they can see read and comprehend of what tariffs do. Thank you Jess for putting that one out there
Call it what it is..... Felons Economy.
Pay no attention to the pedo behind the curtain
It's lean. As in it will lean out your budget!
There's no palace in Versailles Missouri. We spent nearly the median weekly income in Versailles for groceries near Bellevue Washington yesterday which was a HUGE increase. Losing Medicaid and SNAP won't be fun for millions of Americans. Immigrants didn't cause poverty in the US, billionaires did.
Imagine that. Inflation rising even higher now. SMDH
It's touched up past $13/lb here in KC, luckily it's down to just $8.
Jesus!
Bacon is up to $8.99/lb at Stater Bros
Sick of the power company and the fossil fuel industry The republicans could care less dtrumpf is destroying our economy and creating hardship for everyone just because he wants to be a bully with tariffs We pay the cost… FK DJT and the gop
Same here in Ohio
Yuck. Maybe time for people to stop eating animals 🫣
When the bovine industry adjusts to hoover up those beef margins, it's easy to predict that the dairy industry will suffer a serious shortage of milk cows. The trickle down effect will finally be realized.
Truth is very cheap
The steaks we BBQ’d last summer were $8.99lb. They are now $16.99lb. Thanks Trump.
Glad I bought half a cow from my dad. Paid $4.00 a pound for all the beef and I know it’s not injected with shit.
👍
Trumpflation will lead to Trump Great Depression.
I've noticed for 2-3 weeks my grocery bill increasing weekly by $20 to $30 here in the Phoenix area.
Yep, Oreo cookies $9 dollars,chips $5, $12.99 for 24 pack of pepsi products, $11 bucks for 1 sheet of drywall that use to be 3.58 cents! Gas over $3 in most stations, only ones winning today is big corp and rich oligarchs and their bribed politicians/ criminals in this administration !
the Kroger brand (not Haagen Dazs, KROGER) sorbet pints, PINTS, are $3.79 in New Mexico.
You can get prices like this too if you buy 7 for 7 in USA you shouldnt be force into force buying or sale items ! Its a 100% corporate scamming !
Plus gas and electric for homes trippling in states like Ohio,Kentucky etc. and were not into winter yet !
Just got this email from my electric company in western Pennsylvania lol
I feel that the "junk food" companies are just taking advantage. Most of those products are those prices not on sale, but are significantly discounted when they go on sale. I saw a Kroger stores sale for soda, buy two 12 packs for $10 each and get 3 free. $4 is reasonable, but buy 5.
Exactly
That's about the same as I pay buying at the farmer's market in Canada.
I live in a more rural area now and learning the food producers in my area. Trying to buy local and supplement with food lion/kroger. Takes a lot of time and driving. Buying bulk and canning tomatoes, pickles. Gardening a bit.
Just 3 months ago I bought ground beef, 90/10 on sale for $4.99, regular price w/o card, $6.99! 😳 On Tuesday, same brand, same quality on sale $6.49, regular price $8.29! 🤔 Inflation? Thanks Frump! 🤬
That’s the super lean, it’s always been about that price, at least for years outside of sales prices.
£6.20 for 1.1lbs of Aberdeen Angus 5% fat, minced beef at Tesco, here in the UK!
Aw come on Jess; you could get the 30/70 and save money. The 70% fat is good enough for your family. 😉
Here if you check the label of Sainsbury's mince it says "a mixture of fresh and frozen mince" without giving a % and it's still expensive.
The beef mince at Sainsburys has % on there. It's also currently £3.50/500g for the same as what's pictured, that's almost 50 g more in package. Using an approximate exchange rate, it would be $4.90 or so. Considerably cheaper. www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/produ...
Well we're obviously talking about different Sainsbury's mince then aren't we? This one doesn't say a mixture of fresh and frozen so it's not the one I was talking about.
I can't find it Maybe they removed it. But people weren't happy, just like they aren't with the vacuum packaging at the moment (after a google) but I haven't tried that so can't comment.
I mean, I've only been shopping there for almost five years, where even when they were in the not vacuum pack the label was similar. Maybe you are remembering a time from before that? What I find more disturbing about buying UK beef products is how many things are just labeled 'steak'
I shop at Morrisons now because it's the cheapest place in this nowhere town. I can't remember when it was, but im almost certain it was after covid and the COL. I haven't noticed the steak thing tbh. I do actually eat frozen now because fresh is just too expensive.
Or I shop at the nisa local and get delivery, because it is more expensive but I live a few miles from the shops so it's cheaper to get it delivered by nisa than it is to shop and pay for a taxi back.
Time to eat the rich!
Is this because of Brazil boycott or US beef industry taking advantage of a bad situation to make more money?
I would never buy any meat at Walmart anyway, but that price is ridiculous.
The math in question not bulk prices vs. non-bulk, it's pre-Trump vs. Trump-era. I know context is hard for conservatives. You know your masters aren't going to pat you on the head for defending them, right? You're poor and powerless. They have nothing but contempt for you.
If being a lemming gets you thru the day...keep your head buried,your negative attitude fresh and carry on Chris.
Also, not sure how I have a negative attitude but you don't when you came here insulting a wide swath of the population, but I only insulted the asshole insulting large swaths of the population.
That makes no sense in this context, Dave. If I had my head in the sand, I wouldn't notice prices had gone up just because I could buy a different item that cost less. The right-wing trope of claiming the left are followers while licking the boots of the dear leader only works on other toadies.
Great time to give up meat
Hello Ms. Piper, I’m Zach, a high school journalist. I just published an exclusive investigation into how 193 Trump donors funneled $2M through Guam, raising quid pro quo and campaign finance concerns. Would be grateful if you gave it a look or shared it: open.substack.com/pub/zachkahn...
Huh. At my chain grocery here in Vancouver BC (Save On Foods) lean ground Canadian beef is $8.50/lb Canadian. That’s $6.19 USD. “Lean” is 83/17 here. Regular is 70/30 and it’s about $5.50 USD.
We don’t get the 70/30 option here. All 80/20 and a little 90/10
73/27 is 4.94 at Walmart
This is what minced beef cost me in Norway in the 1980s.
$2 more per pound. When that orange POS created the stupid AF name “Big Beautiful Bill” he was referring to our high grocery prices.
POCS - Piece [of] Orange Coloured Shit.
No Aldi's in Maryville.
Eating the rich is a better bet, for most of us.
Same in Columbus Ohio.
he wasn't kidding, pretty soon we'll *all* be eating cats and dogs.
*cries in California*
Lower red meat consumption is the only healthy thing Trump and his mobsters are accomplishing. And this is only by accident.
Beef is for the ruling class, not peasants. Bird flu hasn't suddenly gone dormant or died down, so the rich will enjoy chicken as a delicacy, too, from exclusive, secretly vaccinated flocks.
$5.69/lb at ShopRite ($5.19/lb if you buy 3 lbs).
Maryville doesn't have a ShopRite
Trumpflation
A part of this is lack of competition at several levels. In the 80s, Maryville had 4 grocery stores, plus a locker in the early 80s. Now it has 2. All agriculture has consolidated as well over the last 40 years.
Same price here in Louisiana ⚜️ used to be $5.49 last year 🤦🏿♀️😫
That tracks with what I'm seeing here in Omaha. Highest beef prices since the pandemic.
Nah. It's patriotic to pay more now. It'll all pay off in the long run when we usher in the golden age. They see the prices of everything just the same as we do and they aren't screaming at their cult leader about it. What's that tell you?
Yeah, someone I know paid that in Centralia 3 weeks ago.
The only Centralia I know about is the one in Pennsylvania where the ground is collapsing due to the fire that's been burning since 1962.
I’ve heard of that one!
How to make TVP ground beef Ingredients: A dab of vegetable oil 1/4 Onion, diced or 1 Tbspn Onion Powder 1 Cup Water 1 Tbspn Garlic powder 1 Tspn Paprika 1 Capful Hot Sauce or Chili Powder 1 Tbspn Worcestershire Sauce 1-2 Tbspns Soy Sauce Pepper, to taste 1 Cup TVP Dry Crumbles …
Process: In a small pot, add oil, add onion. Sauté onions for a few minutes to soften. Add water and spices. Stir to mix. Add TVP Crumbles. Stir, so crumbles are soaked in liquid. Bring mixture to a boil. Simmer until TVP has soaked up the liquid. …
Once completed, let TVP mixture cool before storing in a closed refrigerator container.
BTW TVP is cheaper than ground beef. I bought about 250g of TVP for about $1. But, I have a unique source. TVP cost in the U.S. example: 12 ounces / $5.15. 12 ounces may make equivalent of 1-3 lbs of “ground beef.”
How much is 80% lean?
But eggs are down. And gas is only $1.99. /s
They're painfully aware. They need to know why. Between GOP policies and corporate gouging, the causes aren't really discussed
They didn't want to know why when Biden was president. It was just his fault. The fact that they aren't already blaming their cult leader tells you everything.
Cults tend to crash and burn with dear leader. I'm hoping the end is nigh for MAGA 🍿
Florida says hold my beer.
In Missouri ffs.
Here's your equivalent in the UK, @piperformissouri.bsky.social - ASDA was owned by Walmart until reasonably recently. 500g = 1.102 lb £4.99 = $6.69 It'll be cheaper in Lidl and Aldi for the same or better quality. And our inflation rate is currently 3.6%
We just did a comparison of receipts- 6/2024 it was $4.49/lb and this week it is $7.99/lb. (At City Market, not WalMart). This feels like a really big deal that is not getting attention considering the primary campaign promise was lower groceries for everyday Americans. (Plus ending the wars 🥺)
Thanks Obama!
80/100 ground beef $9.99, local chain, meat tastes flat. Costco $4.99. But Costco’s meat has an off taste.😒 Local butcher, $8.99, but has a good ratio of beef to fat, and tastes great!
Under Biden, the price of eggs was in the news daily. Our messaging sucks
I use 93% lean, too! Here in eastern VA, a 3 lb chub pack is $23.
There is no way that my Trump loving relatives can afford that.
Had to look at my receipts, found that ground beef was $4.98 a pound a year ago
Republicans..making us all healthy vegetarians. 🙃
The problem is it has to stir them beyond the cult message. Until that happens, nothing will change them.
Yup. But this messsge works with the apathetic
I meant I just wonder what is their breaking point...
I wonder this, too. When food banks close or are picked over and food stamps are eliminated... then what?
He thinks North Korea is doing a lot of things right.
Eating grass and tree bark? That sounds good
What boomers called the food 1960s hippies ate: grass and tree bark Boomer food:
Mexican stores, a buck less.
WOW. Must have been quite tasty. Wonder what their steaks cost.
Yup - grass fed filet mignons were $30 Lb at my local Trader Joes yesterday & that's a bargain price.
Wow 😮 That is why we rarely eat beef anymore.
😯. But, but the beef producers are making a huge profit, AND getting a tax break. Win-win for the wealthy, and isn’t that what MAGA voted for? 😒
Not anymore …. Trumps tariff war on China 🇨🇳 resulted in China saying FUVK YOU to Trump and they switched their beef 🥩 orders to Australia American beef farmers are taking a huge hit so of course they are putting prices up
Meat should cost 10x’s that amount. Animals should be treated humanely and humans should eat less meat.
If the floods continue in cattle country, you'll see it skyrocket more. Ranchers will have to source feed providing their stock survives.
September 11, 2020 www.kiro7.com/news/trendin...
Well aware. We've had more storms over the last 3 years than in the 30 I've lived here. Last year was particularly brutal as we had two direct hits - one dropping 17"+ of rain in less than 24 hours.
I’ve been waiting for this to happen Trumps tariff war on China 🇨🇳 resulted in China saying FUVK YOU to Trump and they switched their beef 🥩 orders to Australia American beef farmers are taking a huge hit so of course they are putting prices up
BTW US imports a lot of beef from south of the border too. Much like oil, the highest bid wins 'on the hoof' come sale time, whether our nation or our food supply.
So these beef imports are subject to tariffs too?
If I understand what he said initially, the shift was on certain products from south of the Border including beef and he would 'solve the shortage' by going to Australia and other nations while 'making tariff deals'. A % of American beef has been shipped abroad for years. Check ER USDA for data.
He killed soy in his last term yet, they voted for him. Part of this falls on the Dems for their incessant abortion and hand-out scripting. Find a better way, pack the House and Senate, solve post election. Those two issues stopped moderates from voting and/or caused them to back Evil.
I mean, that is the fancy stuff but yeah, prices on everything are going up.
A dozen eggs today for me $9.51
And it's lean.....awful
Yep
That’s if Dem politicians have any desire to share information with voters. Disappointed in their aggressiveness.
My grocery bill this weekend for my family of 4, for just all the usual stuff, was up noticeably - north of $350 😞
My $200 dollar grocery bill is now $240-250. Monthly bills for services are ALL going up. Auto and homeowners insurance is significantly increasing. I expect medical health insurance to soar too. So much for making things more affordable.
Same. 2 years ago I would go to Walmart every Sunday and spend ~150$. Now it's between $260-330 every week. My teaching salary sure as hell hasn't gone up to compensate....
Boycott Wally World
Where should they go instead? You apparently know where they live and where their nearby grocery stores are.
Then open a local grocery store.
And watch it go under in six months and leave you in debt.
I'm a shopper; not a merchant
If you can't afford to buy by the fuckton, you're not going to compete with Walmart.
Low Prices Guaranteed destroyed businesses the country over, but Carcano knows you just gotta stop buying from them 30 years late.
I've been in a WM once - in Puerto Vallarta. I don't shop at WM. Their reputation preceded them long before they arrived in WA. What makes you think I wasn't saying this 30 yrs ago?
Lol, would love to. But I can either spend $600 a week at my grocery store in the 1200 population town I live outside of, or travel 20 minutes to the 4000 population town and spend $300 a week at Walmart. I'm a teacher, not a doctor or lawyer.... So money matters in a family of 4 on my salary
Yep, lots of grocery deserts unless you are close to a larger city.
I drove through OK once and saw a WM in an otherwise dead town. Lot was full of cars. I wondered who is shopping? Where do they make their living? Why would they shop at this place when their own businesses have been bullied out of existence? I have no answers
"Why would they shop at this place when their own businesses have been bullied out of existence?" You answered your own question.
Snark aside, big box stores like WM drive out small businesses from small cities and rural areas, so that in a few years there's no place to shop for basics EXCEPT Walmart. (Lowes and Home Depot do the same thing.) Only small businesses that survive are niche businesses that WM has no interest in.
Dollar General, too
I give out local grocery store as much business as I can to keep them open. But no joke, I've spent over $50 there before on milk, bread, cereal, and a couple other items. It's tough
Additional point: Shopping strictly at locally-owned businesses and not the big box stores is commendable, but it's also only an option for people who can afford the higher cost in both money and time of doing so -- which is NOT most people in small towns and rural areas.
The local stores are consistently LESS in my city. They're half the cost of Kroger and Safeway. That's my experience here in WA
They just can't compete, which of course is Walmart's intent. Economies of scale, etc.
They shop there because it’s the only place to shop. What would you have them do?
Yep. Same thing happened in the town I drive to, to shop at Walmart. It sucks. There is literally no other option in rural Nebraska for anyone that makes what I make or less. I shop as frugally as I can. Teenage boys eat a metric ton and bills don't pay themselves.
If they don't sell it all, so in turn they HAVE to raise their prices to break even. I knew the owner of the grocery store from my home town...nhe told everyone that would listen. But he ultimately had to close the store. Now they all drive 40 miles to get groceries
I think govt should play a bigger role in preventing this from happening - a referee of sorts. This affects peoples' lives in the worst way. Stress kills, cars pollute, time is precious, etc. Quality of life issues
The current government wants that. They're all "if you can't afford it, get a high paying job in the city or at one of these new factories that no one is building and no one is going to build because we're governing by vibes."
Most small towns here are lucky if they have a grocery store at all, and they are used as a backup for most, because they have to price their products 50% above the rest. See grocery stores have to order a certain $$ amount of product from suppliers, or they don't get supplied. They eat the cost
I live in a city of 400k and have choices still. As a rule, the small, local stores are LESS expensive than major chains. Monopolies are terrible for the consumer because even tho the corps have buying power they price gouge because they can. They can easily afford to cut $ in half but never will
In some states, WM allows you to sleep in their parking lots, including RVs and Vans.
Ah, yes. You might even see Uncle Clarence and Ginny camped out. 👌
I personally don't shop at Walmart, but I'm also super lucky that I live in an area with great grocery stores. Though I'm still shopping at a big corpo store. All of us ideally want to shop local, but yea, the cost is usually 2x and not many of us are in a position to be doing that
Grocery Outlet is where I shop first. Prices are 2/3 to 1/2 of Safeway and Kroger. They show how much food should actually cost
The only thing going down is PsychoPrez's approval rating on everything.
Wow! This prompted me to look what our prices are here in Illinois. In west burbs of Chicago Walmart is the same @ $8.97. Meijer is $7.99 for 94% lean Ground Beef. Beef prices have been increasing since March. I was getting 80/20 for $3.99 in Feb. It is now $5.99.
It their price nationally.
'It's'
Here in Tennessee it's about$7.97/lb
Yup, this is from January 2025 when I posted about rising grocery prices in Oregon:
Yes they pounded the media with the price of eggs but silence now from the media, and she did talk about prices but all you heard was DEI
😳
ah but gas is $1.99 in 3 states (or 2 or 5 depending on when he says it)
That’s insane!
With ICE arresting meat packers, even meat availability is at risk.
93% is always more expense, but that's high. How much was 80%?
Just today I paid $7.19 per lbs. for 80/20 at a local Kroger.
Wow! What Price Gouging! We get 97% ground beef at our CA Costco for 5.99/lb.
Our Costco is $4.99, but the meat has an off taste. I still use it for meatloaf and meatballs but not for a simple hamburger.
Well, that's a Bummer. I've used it for hamburgers and they were delicious. Weird.
Will see, hubby bought some Costco hamburger today. Will try tomorrow night.😏
Holy crap. The pedophile party has struck again!! Thank you republicans for making us great again
I'm so old I remember when our grocery stores had it for 65 cents per pound--and it wasn't on sale!
I never buy meat at Walmart, either Albertson’s, Costco, or Aldi.
There are only two grocery stores in Maryville
How much is this in kilograms?
Unfortunately those of us who voted for her still have to deal with this too
Except the Dems are so bad at messaging. Please help them…
If you can, shop at Aldi's. I know theyre not everywhere but if you can tolerate generic then grab it otherwise just try to get most of your foods from Aldi then go to Target or Walmart for the rest.
That’s not tariffs!
Indirectly it is….. Trumps tariff war on China 🇨🇳 resulted in China saying FUVK YOU to Trump and they switched their beef 🥩 orders to Australia American beef farmers are taking a huge hit so of course they are putting prices up
That's about what it is at our Kroger in Flagstaff (Fry's).
Montgomery County PA, almost $9/lb too. So much for bringing costs down.
Shop somewhere else and read circulars. Got a 10 oz grass fed ribeye for $6.99. Delicious.
Thanks!
meanwhile here in new jersey prices have remained more or less consistent because they’ve been gouging us the whole time
Missouri is the #3 beef producer in the US. The state exports millions of live cattle yearly to Canada, Pakistan, Mexico, Japan, and Brazil. The high beef prices are greed.
Don't shop at fucking Wal Mart for a start!
Start boycotting beef for yourself and the animals. Go vegan! 👍💚🌱
You know prices on all food is going up, right? Tariffs plus labor shortages due to immigration raids will have a negative effect on produce.
Yes, but ultimately produce is less resource and labor intensive to produce. Meat and dairy were only ever as cheap as they were due to insane government bailouts and subsidies in the billions of dollars - as much as 70% of earnings in the dairy industry came from government checks in recent years
Great. We just need people to harvest it.
I agree. I fully support Open Borders.
They should be paid better, as well.
Of course
Time to go vegetarian.
Check your beans, dried, canned and frozen, for pebbles and stems as deregulation continues.
Price of all that is going up too.
They’d rather throw it away than feed people at a reasonable price
1.1lbs 5%fat mince( ground beef) is about $6.70 in UK for comparison.
And the quality is shit.
This is the main reason I stopped buying red meat years ago. I can still get a 10 lb bag of chicken leg quarters for around .80 a pound. Needless to say, a lot of my protein intake is now chicken.
Bingo. Same here. Can't remember the last time I bought beef.
Making American vegetarian - a real "eat healthy" effort....
I’ve been waiting for this to happen Trumps tariff war on China 🇨🇳 resulted in China saying FUVK YOU to Trump and they switched their beef 🥩 orders to Australia American beef farmers are taking a huge hit so of course they are putting prices up
Easiest marks on the planet
The problem now is they’re flooding their own zone with shit
So glad I gave up Red Meat! However, boneless-skinless chicken thighs have increased in price from $2.96/lb. to $3.22/lb. a 9% Increase The Irony is Our Elected Officials are SO Far Removed from the Day-to-Day Struggles of We The People They make $174,000/annum + Free Healthcare FOR LIFE WTAF!
when the mexican workers are gone from the packing plant and the tariffs kick it it will go way up
My God!
Those prices match those in my part of North Carolina (Davidson County). I buy the 96% lean when I get ground beef; it’s ~$9.50 lb. 😩 Maybe these numbers will get through to R voters.
😮
AND with the reversal of food safety standards, we don’t even know if our food is going to be safe to eat for much longer.
Listen to this podcast. Are we re-living history? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...
Same price on the West Coast.
$7.99/ pound HyVee in Lee's Summit for 93/7
Damn!
Do not purchase over priced foods. Wake up.
Well, I normally don't look at anything not marked down, but I looked at prices here in Norway yesterday, $12.50/lb. Decided I'm simply going to eat down the freezer contents at home, and then give up the ghost...
Exactly, it's ridiculous. Prices are insane. I can't get lettuce or half of the fresh produce I need to make a decent salad. My sons are learning the art of rinsing canned veggies to get rid of sodium and additives so we can make some semblance of a meal.
😳😳😳😳
Meat is becoming a luxury item.
I saw two steaks at Sam's Club this afternoon and the price was over $40. I don't even remember the last time I had a steak and I guess I won't be eating one anytime soon at that price.
That's awful it will probably get worse. trumps administration is awful
The US recently stopped beef imports from Mexico, so this is the result. The FO stage of FAFO.
Also this ….. Trumps tariff war on China 🇨🇳 resulted in China saying FUVK YOU to Trump and they switched their beef 🥩 orders to Australia American beef farmers are taking a huge hit so of course they are putting prices up
Ah, so it's a double hit. I wonder how much pain MAGATs will be prepared to take until reality bites them in the ass.
Brazil is the largest beef exporter in the world. And we're over here taxing Brazilian imports. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beef#To...
Why is there an * after "all natural" 🤔
But, isn’t Kansas the ground beef’s mothership?
Celebrating January 20th are we..?
My oldest son and I share a butchered angus cow each year, which we source from my niece’s husband’s family. Our next one is due to come in September. It’ll be interesting to see the price difference we pay, from what’s in the store. Last year we paid $3.94 a pound, hanging weight.
Even the non kean 80/20 is $7/lb here
But gas is $1:99 somewhere according to Trump
Vegetarian here: What's a "normal" price per lb. normally?
Ground beef is up by about $2/lb in my area
Jeebus!
Yikes, I used to buy ground beef because it was a cheap way to feed my family
Fast food restaurants are bringing new chicken recipes to their menus. Chicken is a cheaper protein. That’s a truly wild statement.
I used to buy chicken for 39 cents a pound
Yep, the same in Arkansas.
Weigh it, I bet it’s short !
The cheapest version at Giant (PA) is 8.97 as well.
Enjoy it. This is what the people voted for.
ain't going down anytime soon, esp. w/ screw worm outbreaks and bird flu
Just confirmed. Same price in my area (east coast)
Also, perhaps don't eat meat. 😉
I eat my own, but I hear you.
I eat beef once a week. Local, grass fed isn't cheap but it's only once a week. Most of the time it's veggies and that's getting $$$
And you ain't seen nothing yet. Hey, anyone remember when he was president last time and the Romaine lettece was full of e. coli and the canned green beans were old and woody thanks to his love of deregulating to stimulate business growth?
Same here in Roseville, CA $8.97 lb at Walmart
$9?? Seems like you’d have to give 93/7 beef away. I get the point of this post and agree. Just saying.
The U.S. cattle inventory is at its lowest since the early 1950s. Screwworm is all the way down in Panama, why does it need to be managed? Let's tariff Brazil!
Currently, in small town Tennessee, gas is 2.89 9/10. It’s still a lot cheaper than a dozen eggs, so there is that.🤷🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Same price here in northeast Ohio. The exact same product was $2/lb cheaper in Jan per my order history
Ground promises...
TACO tariffs at work here folks!
It's the same here in Massachusetts as well.
Just months ago, I was buying this same 93/7 beef for $4.98 weekly. Nearly doubled in price since Taco Felon was installed. Now we have turkey Taco Tuesday’s. When will people wake the f*ck up?!?
I’ve been telling my stupid trumper family for years and years “ keep voting Republican and you’ll see how expensive things will get”
Yep same in arkansas
I wonder how much eggs are now…
$2.99 dz large last week, west Alabama.....beef is High but I buy ground pork sausage for $2.19 #
Around $4.50 in my area
Beats 8 at least
Eggs are down in Detroit, but everything else is way tf up.
About the same in Denver, 3lb package 80/20, $27.99.
Same price at Walmart down in SW Missouri. I buy meat at a local butcher shop and for the same price for 6 pounds of ground beef at Walmart, I get 5 pounds of ground beef, a pound of bacon, a pound of sausage, 4 pork chops, 2 chicken breasts, and 5 pounds of breaded chicken tenders.
Unfortunately a lot of communities don’t have local butcher shops where they can get meat. Some towns may have only a Walmart so they are forced to pay the higher prices.
But what about the meat studded with maggots? That's what REAL ALPHAS EAT.
Pretty much the same price in West Des Moines, IA Hy-Vee stores.
MAGA will continue to blame Biden 🙄
Here's what we pay in Ireland and this would be free range, grass-fed and free of additives inc steroids etc - www.lidl.ie/p/irish-lean...
The democrats couldn’t take a message to voters is it was tatooed on their forehead and all they had to do is stand there. They’d fuck it up somehow. Most of them anyway.

“I SAW GAS AT $1.98, MANY ARE SAYING THINGS ARE DROPPING SO FAST!”
Well, looks like a lot of people are going to go cannibal. Er, I mean, vegan
You can't pray that away.
Omg. They said everything would be noticeable in late July. There are no tariffs on beef so what the hell is this?
a cow shortage is the bullshit claim that I read
That is bullshit.

Oh my. Couldn’t believe it - but looked at and it’s same in OK. Sigh.
Pretty sure MAGA avoids the healthy stuff and goes for the baseline, 73% stuff at around $6/lb and still whine mightily about it.
Would definitely connect more than talking about the deficit.

I had no idea it was so much more expensive! I just looked locally and even at Aldi’s it’s $8 a pound. It was &4.50 a pound what feels like 2 weeks ago (but must’ve been a bit longer)
Ground beef prices per pound at the Wal-Mart near me: 93/7 $7.87 90/10 $6.88 85/15 $6.62 80/20 $6.53 73/27 $5.64 & $4.94
My grocery bill has doubled!
A handy tool to see how bad Republicans are making life for us. 27% increase. Thanks @cwebbonline.com for sharing this. Go to this site and plug in grocery items. I find these prices are artificially low really. houserepublicanpricehike.com
Almost all the prices listed are lower than what I’m actually paying at the grocery store. Bread @ 1.88? Never.
That’s what I’m saying …still much lower than what I see in real life … and still 27% increase I think we should look at different numbers. I’m gonna look at my actual receipts
I’ve been seeing a sharp increase over the last 2 months, my regular stores are Stater Bros, Vons, Albertsons…all higher.
Me too. And having traveled around a bit displaced from the LA Fires I can tell you groceries are pretty much constant everywhere.
Grocery prices vary with store, brand and region, but prices have been going up. I'm shifting brands and going to cheaper stores, but the threat of tariffs (are they on?) has caused havoc on prices. 70% of US produce is imported. Brazil main producer of coffee and orange juice (50% tariff to come)
While RFKJr fights dyes on foodstuff (present in minimal amounts), not a finger moved into making healthier food (fruits, veggies, good protein sources) cheaper and easier to adquire.
But we’re destroying crops on the fields by terrorizing and disappearing the people who harvest them and increasing tariffs on the food we now need to import
That’s not even grass fed
“Groceries are down” continues to be a lie that MAGA is happy to swallow and the media seems OK with.
Let's start sharing receipts. I paid close to $2 for 2 apricots the other day, and butter is now $5 a lb
Welp who knew that MAGA would make purchasing beef nostalgic for the middle class and working poor.
North GA: this item on my own WalMart order from November vs price today.
Barely eat meat anymore since inspections have become so lax or nonexistent. Fish, eggs, dairy, grains, nuts, for protein instead.
Pic is from Feb. 2025 Went yesterday, and the 8 pack is now $12!! Kroger in Aurora Colorado!!!
Walmart’s ground beef prices are the same here in Virginia. We’ve been eating a lot more pork chops, which I can get for $2/lb at Costco.
What we have going on from HEB here in Texas. They have had ground turkey rolls for $2 and I've been snatching those up.
Holy crap … these are Maine lobster prices , in grocery store , thats the highest ( we go to loval Fish markets to get better price )
I just got two three pound tubes of 93% lean at Walmart in Warrensburg, Missouri. It was almost $25 a tube. Ridiculous.
@kenmartin.bsky.social
BUT Nutlick says everything is cheaper and we just don’t understand! 😆
I looked at a ribeye steak 🥩 at ALDIs yesterday that was $22. Just a normal sized steak. I was just flabbergasted. I have never seen beef prices so high.
Soooo, what you're saying is it's all Biden's fault. (I swear that's how MAGA brains work.) Seriously though I know what you're saying. We're just going to have to stop buying some stuff until the prices come down. Dollars are the only power they recognize.
I am a very conscientious shopper already and only buy items that are budget friendly or on sale, but I’m definitely feeling the impacts of higher prices on everyday items. They bitched about prices under Biden? They haven’t seen anything yet!
I kept telling them if Trump won, they'd be crying for Biden's economy back within one year.
The difference is - Biden didn’t do stupid shit to make prices go up.
Yikes
