Grocery Prices That Make You Say 'No Way!'

Why does a tub of pre-cut fruit cost more than a steak dinner? Grocery runs are starting to feel like a scam, with beef, pre-cut produce, shredded cheese, snacks, and even 'bargain' prepared foods all hitting wallets hard. Blame inflation, supply chain chaos, and sneaky markups on convenience. Pro tip: skip the pre-shredded cheese and chopped veggies—doing it yourself can save serious cash! Anyone else side-eyeing their receipt lately? #Food #GroceryScam #FoodInflation

SNAP week always means higher prices — and we pay for it

In Phoenix, everyone knows this: the week SNAP hits, grocery prices go up. Last week at Safeway, chicken breast went from $2.99/lb to $4.29/lb overnight. A woman next to me whispered, “SNAP folks don’t feel it anyway.” But we do. People paying full price end up carrying the burden. Government help shouldn’t distort prices in ways that punish working families. #SNAPLife #ShowUsTheBill #FoodInflation #CostOfLiving #WorkingFamilies
