I just can't believe the prices. It's really disheartening to spend so much for so little. And I don't like feeling like a miser, but that's what I have to do to make it on my pittance of money.
Have you noticed that there is much less variety of "store brand" products? A year ago you could find store brand diet caffiene free cola for $0.69/2 liters. Now, your lucky to get diet cola for $0.99/2 liters.

Consumer products have all increased in price, income has not.
