I've been looking for Wyler's granulated beef bullion for the last 8 months. Nothing!  There is no longer a space for it. I've also been unable to find chocolate almond milk for the last few months. The vanilla almond milk is out most of the time too. We checked out a new store that sells wine but they have a good sized organic section too. They had chocolate almond milk !!!!!!!!!!!! We bought 4 and will probably go back for more.

Have you tried the Heb Ox sodium Free bullion???  We buy on Amazon and it is actually better than anything else we’ve ever tried?  Link Attached…

Publics had vanilla almond milk last week, not sure about chocolate.

Crisco went up a dollar for two sticks in one week.  I bought the last three rolls of duct tape at Walmart last week.  They didn't have more in the back.  Starting to see empty places on the shelves, esp. if it is a rare sale item, or store brand.  Anyone else seeing this?  Sure, we are a long way from food shortages, in terms of starving, but its just starting to "feel funny".  Same went for fresh fruit...spotty.  Lots of berries but the prices are crazy!

Seeing the same thing here.  More empty spaces on shelves than I’ve seen in over a year.  Some items I typically buy (but can live without) have been out of stock for over a month.  Prices are still going up and I’m so glad I bought the 27 cases of Ball jars when they were 8 bucks…. The regular mouth quarts are now over 15.00 at our local Wally.

Today was shopping day for me. I make several stops. Walmart brand canned vegetables shelves were sparse. Dry beans were also low. I don’t buy meat at Walmart, but chicken was low and pork was low. Plenty of beef, processed meats and frozen meats. There were full shelves of cereal, chips, soft drinks and frozen vegetables. Kroger seemed well stocked, but I don’t get much there and didn’t check every aisle. The commissary was as stocked as it usually is.

MrBeans grabbed a few things for the front yard yesterday. Two things we didn't bring with us were a shovel and a rake. He was appalled at the prices. I told him to go ahead and get them because EVERYTHING is increasing in price and it won't get better.

There were tons of pork Engels yesterday, but not one pork steak.  The fresh seafood was really picked over, in the area where you walk up and tell them what you want.  Ground turkey was four something a pound, so I bought seven.  I just tasted the new Spicy Chili a minute ago and really liked it.  I used beef.  If the rain comes in I will make bought eight quarts with turkey, so it is healthy.
I have brussel sprouts in the canner right now.  They are cooking in pre-cooked bacon, some fresh garlic and beef broth.  This is a new one.
When I found out I was going to need a hip replacement this summer, I started testing some of the newer meals in a jar.  I am picking the favorites and making more to keep Thor out of the kitchen.  Trust me, you would not want Thor in your kitchen.
Ingals had wide mouth Ball canning jars for twenty...Still too high, will keep searching yard sales.

Have you looked at Walmart? Ours are cheaper by several dollars per dozen than any of our local grocery stores.

8 Beans, Last week, our Walmart's price on wide mouth Ball, one dozen, was 24.00. When Ingall's is cheaper than Walmart, something is wrong....same brand.
