To further shield your grocery cart from inflation, it pays to look at how food prices for different product types have changed in recent years

Tell this calculator roughly what you buy at the grocery store and it will tell you how much more you’re spending thanks to inflation.

Apparently I’m spending 29% more than I did in January 2017.

There’s lots of discussion of grocery chain profiteering and what should be done about it in other posts and other articles. There’s no question profits are part of the problem, and attacking those profits might be part of a solution.

must be my luck. i keep seeing articles that mention inflation, but haven’t had the luck to see people addressing the profit, outside of katie porter from the states. can’t get over the absurd hoarding of new wealth by the rich, and seeing the costs for basic needs go up constantly is a bit distressing within that context.
