As we are all still basking in the radiant afterglow of a most magical
President; a man who was re-elected by a landslide and who most recently crafted the passage of a fiscal
reform bill, I thought it a good time to get out and check in on some food prices -
you know for future reference!
My small town of Forsyth Missouri is blessed with two full featured
grocery stores along with a couple of convenience stores (both gas and non-gas island
locations). Thrown into the mix are a couple of what I would prefer to call
‘cut rate’ emporium types of businesses that are just a little bit hit an miss
when it comes to a full selection.
But, for this post, I decided to stick with the regular grocery
stores where I would be pricing generic brand foods whenever possible. (I
choose the generics mainly because that class of food is about all I can afford
these days)!
Following are the foods I looked at along with what they
cost:
Now, while this list is by
no means complete, I feel that it is representative of some of the items many
of us folks buy fairly often. I hope to publish another similar list this
coming summer and then another one in the fall. It should be fun comparing
them.
