Groceries Costing More and More

Due: Dec. 2nd
We have talked about prices increasing on food like peanut butter, but we have not looked at the grocery store overall. Have you noticed an overall increase in foods at the store? What about when you go out to eat? Have you noticed a difference between sit-down restaurants and fast food ones? How will this effect your family?

No i have not noticed groceries raising in price, but i have noticed the fast-food and sit down restaurants raising. My family tries to avoid fast food restaurants because they are so expensive.

groceries have raised in price due to the cold weather people want to stock up cause the roads get bad the fast-food and sitdown restaurants have relativly stayed the same.

Honestly, i havent noticed the prices going up in stores. If you happen to get something one day, and then the next day it's higher then before. Well the price just boosted up, but some people really don't even notice the price even jacked up.

I haven't noticed any overall increase in foods at stores, but I have noticed a decrease in prices due to the seasons and holidays that are coming up. I haven't really noticed anything in a difference between sit-down restaurants and fast food ones. I don't think this will effect my family because we don't necessarily go out to eat at restaurants alot, we just choose to cook home meals.

I haven't notice that the groceries are going up in prices. Hopefully it doesn't effect middletown because its hard enough already, the next thing we need to worry about is how expensive bread and milk is.

i have noticed grocery and fast food prices raising. my family doesnt like o eat too much fast food since it is expensive

danielleg5 said...

yes, i have noticed the groceries increasing prices on food. and i don't go out to eat much.. i don't pay much attention to that. like i said i really don't pay attention. i don't go out to eat much .

DENARIUS DEAN6 said...

i have see tham going up it like if we have something we like they going to put the payment of it so they can have more of what it is

LanceJohnson6 said...

yes i have noticed some prices rising because stores do not have alot of money theses days. and also its going to be a bad winter so people try and stock up on food. and fast food is also kind of going up but i really dont eat fast food alot.

skate4life said...

no i really havent noticed the grocery prices going up but i have noticed that all of the major stores prices have gone up alot just cause of holiday season and stuff.

donaldcrew6 said...

I noticed prices going up but we always look for the best bargain anyway my mom is literally a couponer she always looks for deals its ridiculous but i know why cause prices are going up

Corey Estes 6 said...

i havent noticed that the prices have gone up because i very rarely go, but the prices always go up around this time of the year, due to people wanting to buy large amounts of food to avoid getting out in the cold.

Kelley Mae 6 said...

Yes. I just went to the store and realized that everything has been going up in price. Especially in the fast food places, they have been going up like crazy. The stores and business places don't have a lot of money so they have to raise their prices.

Okay, i went to the grocery to get dinner for my family. A i lb. pack of porkchops was over 5 dollars. I have a big family and i lb. isnt going to get me anywhere. Just to feed us 7, i spent over 40 dollars on dinner!!!

Austin.Reece6 said...

Honestly i have noticed that the prices are going up on a lot of stuff. I work at wendys so i know almost instantly when they raise prices and the prices have went up a lot since i started. now at most sit-in resturants i have been going to have not really changed much in price but thats what all these business will do. They will continue to go up and up and up. Cause they know when people are still buying all there food and they raised the prices they will lower them again then when business goes back up again the prices go to.

issac,Splashhn said...

this will effect my Family of how my mom coupon shops, she's gone try to get a good price and not go over the limit.splaashh

JuliusWilliams6 said...

I really haven't noticed a change in the grocery prices but I think the prices will rise eventually because of the winter and people do not want to go to the store when the rodes are all nasty and filled with snow.

cklapper said...

I have noticed some groceries prices going up, but not many. I don't really notice fast food going up to, but we get fast food so much we never do see it go up. My family doesn't going to the groceries that much, maybe once a week.

todjnemilton1 said...

yes i have noticed the groceries going up because i love buying food especially snacks they raised snack prices too which i hate restaurants raised prices too but since we love food so much we will continue shopping and buying it because our bodies need it so its kind of smart

Sowens1 said...

I have noticed grocery prices increasing, but not by much. I can imagine this is rough for families on a tight budget because necessities, like food, should be available for everyone no matter what their price range is. Also, i have noticed going out to eat is getting pricier. If these rates stay up, more people will probably make home cooked meals instead.

Yes, I noticed that prices went up. The price of fresh fruits& vegetables, beef and chicken. Poultry prices were up by 3 percent in September over a year ago so poultry prices aren't expected to rise as fast. Even at the restaurants and fast food places, their prices went us as well. Every year, the prices of everything goes up. All you gotta do is a good budget plan so you'd be able to buy everything you need and still got money left.

Djook said...

i have noticed groceries the cost of milk has risen it's almost 4 dollars for a gallon. It depends were you go honestly, some places are still cheap to go out in eat but don't excpect to pay what you would at Taco bell if you go to Out Back.

ahamilton513@gmail.com said...

i haven't noticed a change in prices i mean its still the same everything goes up and down in price so its no big deal we cant do nothin about it

marykatew4 said...

Yes I have noticed an increase in prices. I like to eat fresh fruit but you cannot buy very much because it's so expensive. Fast food restaurants are almost as expensive as sit down restaurants now. I've noticed that my family has been eating more pasta and less fast food to save money.

rkessler13 said...

I have not noticed that the cost of groceries are raising. One thing that I have noticed that is raising the restaurants prices. I think that the prices will continue to increase because everybody knows that you the food and will have to do anything for it so if they jack up the prices then that means that the owners of those places will be getting way more money.

shannonkirby5 said...

i have noticed that there are prices going up but also prices going down. fast foods prices has rised. gas prices has dropped. !

mknight5 said...

i have not noticed the increase in prices at groceries but i have at fast food places and restaurants because i feel like more people go out now because they dont have time to cook at home or just dont want to. but my family doesnt go out to often to save money.

Pat Pat Hill 5 said...

to be honest no i have not noticed a rise in groceries cause it doesn't matter when you have food stamps . & i havent noticed the rise in fast food either due to the fact that i order off the dollar menu .

No i really have not noticed the prices in groceries because my mom does the shopping not me. I think that the fast food and sit down restaurants have stayed the same.

soniajuarez6 said...

raising prices in restaurants would really affect my family because we really like to go out to eat.
no i havent noticed any raising prices in groceries because my mom is the one that goes grocery shopping.

Taylor Williamson6 said...

Yes groceries stores are raising there prices.
Even fast food restaurants raising. We try to avoid getting needless items, we just go for the basics we need. But even they are really expensive.

Dineesia Mack 6 said...

I have noticed the grocery prices raising at Kroger because I went there to buy a big bag of hot cheetos but they where higher than usually.

In my family we really dont go to fast food restaurants because its not healthy.

Beth Cornele said...

I haven't noticed that the prices are going up because I'm usually not the one that does the grocery shoping in the house, my mom is. I did notice about the fast-food prices because me and my friends go out to eat on the weekends. And sit-downrestaurants are usually cost more than fast-food because it's better. My family don't go out to eat much because my mom likesto cook and it's kinda expensive for 4 people to eat out,

latrelldavis2 said...

I havent noticed a change in groceries. but my family and i avoid fast food and sit down resturants because you can spend alot of money at those places and they don't do nothing but bad for you.

Plewis said...

they raised prices on food how everybody gone eat if they aint got money like that then they wanna lower the car prices ah car aint gone feed me this just made me mad "smh" ...

daiquanewhite4 said...

yeah i have seen that the food prices have gone up. another thing that i have notices that the fast food has gone up to, because the things that were on the dollar menu are now like $1.09

chelseadanielle13 said...

i havent noticed any prices rising , i dont really pay attention

brooke wolfe5 said...

I don't normally go to the grocery store with my mom, but I could imagine that grocery store prices are increasing. As well as fast food restauraunts. Places need to make money some how, so the easiest thing for them to do is raise the prices. My family hardly ever goes out to restaurants or fast-food places. If restaurants keep raising prices, more families are either going to deal with the prices, or make their own dinner.

logana5th said...

I have noticed the price of food going up at the grocery store. I figured peanut butter might go up due to the shortage of it. I have noticed meat going up It seems every week things go up 10 cents or so a pound. We don't eat out much but I really haven't noticed anything going up except Frisch seems really off the chart.

andrewlykins10 said...

i have not noticed the groceries raising in price but i can see why they are and with fastfood and sitdown the prices are staying the same. i work at lonestar and they havnt raised there prices. this wont really affect my family that much.

Anonymous said...

I have noticed the raised grocery prices. They are ridiculous. I eat out just about every day for lunch and it's getting pricey. Some sit down restraunts are starting to be more like fast food, such as apple bees. But not with the same price.

Kyle Kaution Mobley said...

The food prices have increased dramatically, eating out has also, i dont really see myself eating in unless i need to

jamiehelms3 said...

I havent notice grocery raising in price. they raise price in food for winter because of the cold weather but that all.

Anonymous said...

i have noticed a price change in groceries because i have to help with buying food and its crazy i think its going to get worse.

vicetyler0 said...

i have not noticed a rais in the price of groceries because i dont shop for them.. i havent heard anyone complaining about it until yet. i have however noticed a rise in the price of fast food and restaurants.

stephanieparker3 said...

No, i haven't really noticed groceries raising in price but I do eat out almost everyday and realized that fast food restaurants and getting more expensive.

frongia1 said...

I have not really noticed an increase in food simply because my mom never really goes grocery shopping anymore because she just can't afford to. This has been the hardest year for us and me and my family live paycheck to paycheck and usually still never have enough money. We don't go out to eat because we don't have the money to do so. I remember last year and years before how we would always go out to eat when my mom would get her check but now we can't do that. The difference between fast food and sit downs are that fast food is a lot cheaper and thats where we get food if we do buy any from a restaurant. It wont affect my family because like I said we don't eat out at all except fast food.

JustinHall2 said...

i have noticed that grocery prices are raising a little bit. but to me its just stupid because people are goin to stop buying so much and stores are going to start to lose money and business customers

christina.c4 said...

i havnt really noticed the rise in price of groceries really. its probly due to the time of the season they think can earn an extra buck by rising the prices.

keekee123 said...

yes i have noticed the difference in grocery prices an i dont think its good at all yet the fast food and sit down restaurants have been kinda going up and down

khalil sloan3 said...

I have watched the prices rise in grocery stores and seems when you go in like krogers there's not as many people there used to be in there like 3 years ago and I don't eat out alot and it's like we are at the grocery 3 times a week

kenyap,5 said...

no i have not noticed because i don't buy the groceries in the house but i do hear my mom talking about how some prices are going up on some stuff but i do kno that some restaurants have gone up on their prices

Ceara Barker5 said...

I haven't notice grocery bills rise but this pizza I really like is like 7 dollars that's almost as much as it cost to order one.

karlaknott said...

i dont do the shopping my dad does so i wouldn't know

Stacy Mullins6 said...

I have noticed prices rising in the grocery store and due to winter coming up and they know people want to stock up. People going out to eat has really stayed the same as always.

Kiara Williams P.5(KNOWSHECUTE_xo) said...

groceries prices ta me , have there ups & downs . every now & again i'd see varying prices but from store to store prices are different. i wonder why there isn't any consistancy. but overall the prices dont seem to be rising.

beckylykins said...

I havent really noticed any prices going up at the stores. I have noticed the prices in fast food going up. This has effected my family somewhat because we tend to eat out regularly. But now we eat at home more.

Anonymous said...

I havent really noticed the prices go up. But I can see why they would. Apparently, we've had a bad crop this year and obviously that would happen. Supply an demand and all that such.

Andrew Gentry4 said...

I have noticed that prices have been going up. I spent all my savings in like 2 weeks. It makes me sick to my stomach. Food and clothes have went up so much. The taxes is what sucks

aquilese4 said...

Sit down restaurants are raising day by day a least i noticed. I don't think this will effect my family because we don't necessarily go out to eat at restaurants alot, we just choose to cook home meals. But still there is a different in how much people go to fast food places more every year.

Jaiden Ballard#5 said...

i think grocerie prices has stayed the same . i hven't noticed any recent change in prices . here in the future, i think we'll noticed big differences. swagg

marquise5 said...
