When something irks me I usually make it known. This time of year and shopping for anything that usually happens a lot. Walmart irked me a lot tonight. At checkout the 18 egg pack rang up as $5.07. I made them put it back and said that 3 days ago I was in their store and the eggs were $3.31. That's a big jump for 3 days. I also let it be known that if the egg price does not drop I can stop eating eggs.

Another deal I missed out on is the $13 to $20 toilet paper. Panic buying must have caused this. Finally I found a 4 roll pack for 98 cents. I'm not sure how that happened. Most drinks have a fair price but at another store I found a 24 pack of Monster Energy drinks for $20.99. That's not for me.

I used to love Eckridge sausage. Not any more. The casings are like rubber and the meat inside is not so good. One trusted brand still is John Morrell with food that is still priced right. As an experiment the other day I bought Campbell chicken noodle soup. Normally I buy Great Value and I'll stick with that one. Much better than the Campbell's.

I'm not a coupon clipper and I don't play that game. The fact that it even exists shows you that we are being over charged for food. The way things look that's going to continue and prices get higher. Screw those eggs. I'm back to my oat meal.
