Price Inflation In The USSA: $1 Items Now Costing Up To $7
Remember when those crazy conspiracy theorists warned that creating too much governmental debt would end up devaluing the US dollar and thus cause price inflation, making the cost of living more expensive for average people? Well…
Discount retailer Dollar Tree has sparked a revolt among some of its customers after increasing the price cap of items to $7 across thousands of stores nationwide.
"If it were really going to go up like $7 … that'd be too much. I'd rather just get everything at Walmart," Scott Kolack, a Dollar Tree regular, told WPTV-TV.
On March 13, Dollar Tree CEO Rick Dreiling told investors during a conference call, "This year, across 3,000 stores, we expect to expand our multi-price assortment by over 300 items at price points ranging from $1.50 to $7."
Dreiling said the higher costs would include food, pet, and personal care items, though not all items will reach the $7 mark.
"Over time, you will also see us fully integrate multi-price merchandise more into our stores so our shoppers will find $5 bags of dog food next to our traditional $1.25 pet treats and toys, and our $3 bags of candy will be found in the candy aisle," Dreiling said.
Dollar Tree's CEO also pointed out that the company's fastest-growing demographic is consumers making around $125k a year. This comes as Bidenomics fails what's left of the middle class. There really is something amiss with the economy when budget retailers can no longer supply customers with low-cost items.
Meanwhile, all 99 Cents Only stores across the nation are closing for good. Dollar Tree is closing nearly 1,000 Family Dollar stores, citing theft & inflation.
This is of-course is just another one of the thousands of economic domino effects of national debt insolvency. As long as the government needs Trillions in debt every 100 days to fund their bloated waste and grift, Americans will keep witnessing the rising costs of living, more and more stores closing down and going bankrupt, more poverty thus more crime, and everything else that contributes to the definition of a third world country.
Maybe it's time to give up on failed Keynesian economics and revive a real economy with industrial production, manufacturing and strong agricultural workforces while limiting governmental spending aka grift?

I don't understand how normies are not rioting in the street. My groceries, only a few gallons of milk, eggs, and some other basics, totaled something like $70.
It's crazy.

They'll riot and loot when they start to starve.
The only major dilemma preppers like myself have is ethics and moral when SHTF. If anyone were to cause a threat to us or our families, we will be forced to stand our ground. It's not like we want this, hell we even warned others about this type of scenario, but as usual very few listen. And soon it will be too late for people to listen anymore. They'll become dangerous animals. They'll likely have to be treated as such, if they pose a threat.

Yes even average middle class families are searching for cheaper food now!

What's it like living in the backwoods, where they don't sell nice things?
for people like you, Walmart is a 'fancy store'… you don't have any nice stores there, just shitty Dollar General, Family Dollar and Walmart.
I can't imagine living like that.
It's not quaint or charming
it's not patriotic homesteading
It's just country bumpkin hillbilly backwoods wasteland bullshit.
Living without
Settling for 3rd or 4th best
No access to nice things
No high end restaurants
No good food
Just hog jowls, biscuits and eggs
Hillbilly territory
Where they have nothing nice
……..at all

For example, last year for the holidays, I took Wendy to a restaurant here in San Diego called VALLE…
dude…. you wouldn't believe HOW AMAZING it is!!! It's a Michelin Star Restaurant, and they've got THE best God damn gourmet food I've ever eaten.
We kept going back, and now we're regulars, friends with the staff and the owner, Roberto Alcocer, who is a world class chef and a very funny cool friendly guy.
I heard they opened a new Golden Corral near you recently.

MY COMMENT: What's it like? Well we have a lot of elbow room out where we live including privacy. We have access to good food albeit you have to commute longer distances for it. We can still shop at membership stores like Sams Club and COSTCO one a month to stockup and rotate our food inventory. There are nice restaurants and steak houses out here, you just need to know where to travel. They are far between in the rural areas but all the locals know about them and support them. Taxes are low compared to many States and we live in gun country, people respect other people's right to live their own lives how they choose to, locals respect private property and overall things are peaceful. Also the police out here are not afraid to arrest you if you stir up bullshit or act unruly. Therefore it is very civilized while at the same time we have our civil rights respected.

By the way, from what I've always understood, none of those 'Dollar Stores' EVER sold anything for $1
I've always heard people say "the dollar store charged me SIX DOLLARS"
and I've heard that shit for many years
so it's not 'breaking news'
The main reason those places are closing is because LOW RENT WHITE TRASH SHOPLIFTERS
people like you STEAL

Oddly enough, my elbows have plenty of room…. in fact, I can't say my elbows have even been without enough room

I travel to Good Will, it's cheaper plus I go through clothing pretty quickly as I work outside a lot. Pouring concrete slabs & construction projects, taking down trees, tilling & gardening, mulching, trimming, mowing and dealing with the livestock responsibilities.

When's the last time you stopped into the newest funky little Thai Fusion Bistro, and got something exotic off the menu, like maybe a spicy sweet peanut Polynesian shrimp plate?

You can get pretty fancy food in some of the medium-sized towns out here too, there is one place I know called the Tilted Skillet and you can get somewhat 'exotic" foods, and their steaks are great with the marrow butter.

People already report that they have to choose between paying rent and buying food.
However, if things continue to inflate at this rate, it'll be a long while yet before they're technically starving.

MY COMMENT: Not too often although we sometimes do pass by that town on our way to junction UU to stop and eat at the world renowned Missouri Hick restaurant. They have the best most juicy beef ribs you will ever get to eat in your life.

Increasing debt devalues the fiat currency over time, the more debt creation the less the value of that fiat currency, the less value your fiat currency has the higher the cost of living there will be while using it.
