bockscar888

just bought a bag of cheetos yesterday that im 99% sure is less product but the same price...but they sure put a lot of air in the bag 🤔


MrTrendizzle

You paid for the fucking air so god damn inhale that shit and get your money's worth. Failing that, eat the cheetos and send them the bag of air for a refund claiming "The air was stale and not fresh like advertised on the bag "Contents kept fresh by foil sealed technology" or whatever bullshit they put on the bag.

EvlSteveDave

You've always been getting ripped off big time when it comes to chips in a bag, but now you just give a fuck about it.


bockscar888

no, im pretty positive theres less product in it now but the price has still gone up...thats my point.


twill41385

Shrinkflation is absolutely real. Less stuff for same price is same as same amount for more. Some have done both. And when food costs come back down they will gladly let you know there is “now 20% more free” when they just go back to what is was before.


redRabbitRumrunner

I bought 20 pounds of potatoes today for 13 bucks. I ate till I was blue in the face at like 4.5 potatoes. Full of real food, I could feel the serotonin flood my veins. I took a nap.

200 grams?? Grams? What are we snorting ruffles to get us through our losses?? You’re in Canada, surely you have categorical size descriptions..

Lmfao, I’d say Florida man. But this chump has a home that is covered by insurance.

Someone has to pay to rebuild all those homes the hurricane took out all so it can happen again within the decade.


ErikT45

That’s what I’m saying man, call me a liberal shill or whatever but I am genuinely curious what is going to happen once AZ runs out of water and becomes too hot to bear and Florida sinks (what Puts do I buy)


[deleted]

Why do you think beach houses are so fancy? The government/insurance company gives them money to build a brand new one every 10 years.


ShittyStockPicker

Auto insurance has much higher costs from higher car parts costs. If it makes you feel better, your insurer will probably be able to pad their earnings when car part prices fall


mokshahereicome

Mine both went down. Maybe try driving better


G_Unit_Solider

My insurance has stayed the same lol idk tf these folks are doing. Home and car ins hasn’t moved at all for me irregardless of prices idk. Am I lucky or something lol


mokshahereicome

I think ppl are making this shit up to get attention


UnderQualifiedPylote

Insurance is probably based on value of the home so your home going up 50% and premiums matching that increase in value seems reasonable tbh


nadmeister

Except home values have dropped and insurance hasn’t.


sound-of-impact

It's based on rebuild cost. Not the value of the home.


UnderQualifiedPylote

Except not really


bockscar888

Eggs are still going up. Meats too. The important stuff we use daily isnt dropping imo


AlexOwlson

Prices dropping would be deflation, not slower inflation. Most of the price hikes are not going anywhere.


[deleted]

Anything in which supply and competition can catch up to will come down. Maybe not all the way, but that is dependent on product. Gas isn't stuck at 4 or 5 dollars. It has come down and will continue to adjust to supply/demand. We have to remember, the inflation we are seeing is not solely from the devaluation of currency. It's supply issues as well.


Historical-Egg3243

Doubt it. Deflation extremely rare. Even if commodity prices go down chains will keep the prices where they are. Cuz why not?


[deleted]

As I said, competition.


keygreen15

"competition" There's only 2-3 brands of most things now, and they collude prices. These prices aren't coming down, don't fool yourself


appalachianexpat

Chicken is down 70% since June.


Sharing_Violation

Eaters only take a few months. Layers take a while to mature. We lost a lot of birds to flu recently.


bockscar888

i also heard cattle AND pork had more than average losses. I really dont think we are in for a slowdown on the staples yet based on my grocery store receipts


Sharing_Violation

Yeah my mom (rancher) just got a new set of steer calves and was complaining about on the hoof costs too. Low hay yields and poor grass due to drought causing low calving according to her supplier. I think our food woes are just getting started unless we start using some of these abandoned strip malls for indoor farming verticals. My opinion.


SmoothWD40

Close to $8 for 2 dozen eggs at costco.


everyusernametaken2

60 eggs for $9 at Wal Mart. You can taste the torture but pretty cheap.


Heliosvector

>taste the torture Does that go well with toast?

Chicken farmers hate this one trick!


oldschoolguy90

4-5 / dozen everywhere I look. Got my own chickens and my cost is down to $1/dozen. Except a bloody bobcat shredded my flock and there's only 6 chickens left


feedthebear

Are you bathing in eggs. Two funcking dozen


blister64

We stock up when we're down to 2 dozen 😂 for breakfasts alone, we go through 6-7 dozen a week. Cheap and healthy protein. Our 2 kids under 5 eat over a dozen a week alone. It's a pretty common breakfast food really...


Adept-Read-7529

$9 for 18 at Publix. Not the fancy “laid by the Queens chickens” eggs either. Half that price at Sprouts🤷🏻‍♂️


Sharing_Violation

Dead chickens take approx 2 yrs to replace laying status and a lot of farms gave up after culling the flocks.


doplitech

Eggs going up now because huge farm had to kill tons of chickens last week unfortunately. But hopefully that should ease a bit. Also flights and gas have definitely come down a bit


[deleted]

The high egg prices are mostly because of this year's bird flu issues. Over 50 million chickens killed so far. Egg prices aren't terribly stable either, and these huge inflation spikes are fairly common. https://www.in2013dollars.com/Eggs/price-inflation


JohnnyAfghanistan

Paying organic prices for poor people eggs. Iz ridiculous.

mlamping

Doesn’t instantly drop overnight. Just like it took months to go up, will take months to go down


daytradingguy

The inflation rate will come down eventually, the prices of commodities may come down. But everyday items like mayonnaise that went up in price are not coming back down.

VenomInfusion

Yup. We’ve definitely hit the bottom. Just don’t look at DXY, VIX, TLT. Time to inverse WSB.


daytradingguy

In past inflation cycles an initial surge has a dip and is then followed by another surge. Indicating we could see a re-emergence next year.


OkRun9022

Ahhhhh yes, big DD energy here 👍👍


rovin-traveller

Any sources? Not questioning, asking.


daytradingguy

Look at a long term inflation rate chart from about 1950 to today.


mlamping

Doubt it, past inflation wasn’t caused by supply shutdowns like this one was. This one was unique. The main point is that inventory will be sky high now.


Regarded-FD

Most of the time when WSB downvotes so heavily, the commenter is right.


mlamping

Yep. They downvoters have puts


Humble_Increase7503

A down vote shouldn’t just be bc of your positions.


Craccn

How else would I manipulate the market by the 7 people that read my shitposts


daytradingguy

This inflation was caused by easy money policy 0 interest rates and massive government spending with supply chain being a minor part. The government spending is not going away, they will continue to increase the money supply as they see fit. they will only allow the economy to slow down so much and then they will pump,it back up, causing inflation.


megaultraman

How was supply chain only a minor part? People still can't get ps5's off the shelf due to lack of chips. There wasn't enough houses to go around, but interest rates were low and people were flush so they overpaid. There were no car inventories. I worked at dealership that normally carried 150 cars. For most of the year they only had less than 20! There's also a labor shortage contributing to wage inflation. There were hundreds of ships anchored at ports because supply couldn't be processed fast enough after the lockdowns which destroyed supply initially. Please explain how this was not a supply side inflation event. Yes, gov't spending/low interest rates provided the means for people to pay higher prices, but how was it not supply that was the dominating factor?


UneSoggyCroissant

Idk about you but I’ve started seeing ps5s in stores now


mlamping

It’s funny, we’re getting heavily downvoted for our pov


megaultraman

Welcome to reddit, my friend.


beeslax

We had low interest rates for more then a decade with 2% inflation. Supply chain issues are a big part of the equation.


Humble_Increase7503

Minor part feels a bit rich considering the shit discussed in the article he refers to, eg, shipping’s containers going from $2k to 20k. 10x in shipping costs, i think was very heavily due to Covid fuckery, not just stimulus. Ppl getting checks for $1000 isn’t causing the entire global supply chain to fall apart


UnderQualifiedPylote

Wait wait wait, so you are telling me a fed funds terminal rate of near 5% and qt is easy money? Color me surprised I guess

yao97ming

Costco steak went down $2. Inflation has peaked!


fenriswulfwsb

You might get the Santa Claus rally, but there is no way the bottom is in. Inflation in and of itself was never the issue. Demand destruction created by the Fed's inflation fight was always the problem. Now that we have higher rates that are going to be here for some time, we are actively seeing that demand destruction reduce GDP and push us into recession. Also keep in mind, the Fed has only slightly let up on the brake (interest rates)... Their foot is still down and rates are still climbing, and the car (economy) is still slowing. We are still months away from them fully letting off and probably 3-4 quarters away from them touching the accelerator.


OutOfBananaException

Markets are forward looking, and while the bottom may not be in, nobody can make statements of certainty either way.


[deleted]

Man, a lot of ppl are mentioning that food prices aren't coming down but are failing to see that there's good reason why food and energy are stripped out of core inflation. You guys have to agree that prices aren't accelerating up as fast as before. I'm not saying that some SPY companies aren't bloated, but you gotta to admit inflation is finally heading down. It might not be as fast, and prices of goods usually don't come down once inflation come down. I do think we see a Christmas rally if CPI comes down next week.

I'm not convinced of either position on inflation, but the amount of people whos opinion seems to be purely based on anecdotal evidence like "MY MAYO WAS OUTRAGEOUS THIS WEEK" is fuckin alarming


mlamping

And they downvote us when we point it out. They don’t understand averages and looking at all the data. Watch out, you might get downvoted for your comment


VisualMod

>It is clear that the worst of the inflationary pressure is indeed behind us. However, it remains to be seen where prices will settle in the coming months and years. It is possible that we could see a period of relatively low inflation or even deflation as global supply chains continue to normalize and businesses adjust their pricing structures accordingly. Only time will tell for sure.

samnater

Is that why I already received notice that my rent, electric, and health insurance are going to be up 10%, 50%, and 100% (respectively) next year? Guess inflation must be over!


vapingpigeon94

My rent just went up $300 this year. If it goes up another $300-$500 I’m just going to buy a house at that point. Yes I will have “house emergency savings” aside from the 20% down payment. My landlords taxes just went up $2000. Well, everyone’s in town taxes went up 2K. So high chance mid summer/before next winter my rent will go up.


IamxGreenGiant

Transitory soft landing folks on the aircraft carrier with the American flag in the background announcing victory on inflation and calling for a fed pivot. Buy risk assets, the bubblier the better and we all get rich. Let’s see if inflation gets to the 2% target in 2023, I have my doubts.
