I go shopping about every two weeks, buy pretty much the same things, and my bill has consistently been about US$220 for the past several months.
The other day, I bought the usual same things and the bill was US$180, 40 dollars cheaper than normal.
Are grocery prices actually going down, or was this a fluke?
FYI, a few years ago, I was typically paying US$150 for the same groceries.

I haven't noticed a price drop yet.
Oh c'mon. Do you really think when wholesale prices come down they're going to pass the saving on to customers? They'll keep the prices high and pocket the profit
Here's a scary thing, in the UK they're now cutting beef mince with chicken because of shortages
Wait until it's human
the price of eggs was artificially high because of the bird flu. When the chicken supply was replenished it did go down but as a rule when prices rise due to inflation they rarely go back down for exactly the reason you state.
As soon as the price of crude oil goes up, the gas station owners go out and raise the price of gas bur when it goes down it may take months to go down if ever.
Some things have gone down. I noticed meat is a little bit less and I also noticed that the quality is better as well. Gas prices have been going down as well. We will not know until the CPI numbers come out.
More lies. Do you ever stop lying?
What "meat" is going down? Real beef or lab beef?
Better quality than WHAT >? Better than the shit you were eating before from Smithfield, Tyson, Cargill, JBS? Nonsense.
The ONLY way the quality of the beef you're going to get in the USA will go up is if you import it from New Zealand (and they're not interested any more) or you buy locally from small producers. Even then, you have to be aware of what kind of feed they're using, the grass the cows eat, the soil it's grown in, and any hormonal usage.
As I've said before, ALL numbers coming directly out of the White House are tainted and have to be taken with caution. It's not like Trump EVER tells you the truth about anything.
@loveslongnails I bought two nice looking roast beefs last week. They were on sale and I had one Sunday and it was excellent. Thr quality of meat at the supermarket has been pretty crappy the last few years. I have been getting most of my meat from one of the mail order places.
WTF does that have to do with anything? Nothing. Your personal anecdotes are meaningless when it comes to a nationwide economy.
I doubt you know, or care, where and how your food is sourced. You probably look to save money and do no more. Buying meat through the mail is NOT the flex you think it is when you are clueless about the details.
@loveslongnails The CPI numbers have been good. Inflation is a lot less since we have a new President, even the last 4 months it has been manageable. Prices tend to never return but wages have grown in relationship to inflation which is a sign of a good economy.
Anecdotes of the real world are the best way to determine what is really going on. Figures can be fudged but seeing people put items back on the shelf when they go through the cash register speaks volumes about the economy.
Did you really look to see it was exact shopping list? That said, some things are coming down in price but not by that much. I also don't really pay that much attention because I don't overbuy things and usually eat whole foods. All the processed garbage that you shouldn't eat is expensive lol
You shop for yourself your wife and your relatives probably and that’s every two weeks and it’s only $40 🤔 The only thing that’s falling for me. Is my money when grocery shopping it’s like going to a convenience store. I’m spending over a $100 bucks for a few items. And now Bubba burgers are over $20 a box 🙄
In the midterms you do have the chance to let the ruling party know how you feel about their policies and governance. Or you could just bend over for more abuse.
Forget about Bubba burgers. When we fly back from Afghanistan let's get ground pork. It's half the price of beef and twice as good. The chicks will love it.
@shish_kebab OK I guess we’ll have to get pork barbecue sandwiches
We just need to get the ingredients. Let the girls make the burgers.
@shish_kebab sure it sounds great
I’ve noticed prices can be all over the place depending on where you shop and what’s on sale.
Exit, you're going to make him cry all over his long gay nails!

@exitseven
They're coming down, I've seen it for a few weeks now.
Guys worry to much about size.
Sure she had an ex with a very large one but most women would prefer the smaller one of her partner because he knows how to listen.
The store you were shopping at probably had sales because my grocery bill is still insane
Now way it went down $40 if you bought identical items. Perhaps you omitted the bottle of bourbon? :)
They seem to be falling certain things aren't as expensive as they were.
@AviatorTom it won’t fall but prices will increase
Probably a fluke because mine are largely the same.
Not from what I see. Prices have only gone up
I think they are staying the same
Things are not getting cheaper.
