"Whiners" Your parents likely don’t drive much anymore based on your age and their likely age. Most of the inflation is in fuel prices. People that don’t drive are avoiding most of this $460 expense. Groceries up slightly but their SS is also up as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member ViperGTS/Z1 Posted June 12, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted June 12, 2022 $5,500 a year is pretty substantial....but gas will have to go much higher for me to even consider an EV......and I don't drive the most fuel efficient cars to begin with and they all require premium. Im bitching more about groceries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at Meijer yesterday and other than meat things weren’t too bad but these fuel prices especially propane are going to be a real problem this winter...I’m on NG but feel bad for peeps using Propane.

Not much different when Trump was pres There's a lot of good deals. Veggies are always on sale and I stock up on the non-perishables when there's a sale.. My expenses are all fixed. I haven't had that much trouble with the cost of food. Paid $4.69 gallon to fill up yesterday. That was a shocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peoples shopping hasn’t really changed snd neither has the dining out. Every place is packed with people buying stuff up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
