My list of "I'm not buying this anymore" is almost as long as my normal grocery list now. Have any of you cut things out of your regular shopping list due to inflation?
Simply Oranges - they started making the containers 52oz when they were 59oz before, same price. I noticed because my coupon wouldn't work.
Hand soap - just cut this one out to trim down on the bill, I use the dish soap now.
K-cups - I changed to a melitta filter and the reusable filter for when I use the crummy Keurig we were given. The original reusable cup broke, of course.
muffin cups - crisco and flour work just as good, trying to cut down on the bill, as I make oatmeal muffins very regularly.
frozen lunches - not only did I stop buying these, but I emailed every single company about their decreased, and now laughable, portion size, and charging the same price. There is no point in buying these any more.
granola bars - as I mentioned, I make oatmeal muffins (no flour) now, and I wrote these companies, as well, because they decreased the size of the granola bars to barely more than a bite. What is the point in buying those?
woolite for darks - I just stopped buying black clothes so I wouldn't need this anymore
dog treats - when I do buy these, I really spread them out now, so they aren't a regular shopping item
I know I'm forgetting some things, but even after all of this, I feel we're spending a lot on groceries still. I also don't stop buying something without also letting the company know why. That can help them understand that they aren't fooling people, and my hope it that it will stop the prices of things from increasing so frequently.
