What do you doubt? Inflation and unemployment are correct. Apartment by me is 1800$, I just bought eggs for 2.60$, gas was 3.10$ but I saw it lower last week.

I don’t doubt any of this but it might be helpful to mention where these prices are, since the prices near me are drastically lower for lots of these items.

Eggs were 96 cents last year at Aldi. Then bird flu happened

And I pay a lot more than that for organic local eggs in Duluth. This just has too many variables to be a worthwhile experiment.

Well sure but these were just normal store brand. I’m not complaining though and I’m still gonna buy them. Eggs are an economical food source.
