Gotta love shrinkflation

I was finally priced out of shopping at our neighborhood grocery stores and Aldi has been my saving grace, I wish I’d started shopping there sooner. It’s a 20 minute bus ride away but food is literally half price there and decent quality.

I always recommend Aldi if it's a local option. It's where I do most of my shopping and I honestly have no idea what people are talking about with increasing grocery prices. It's probably gone up there too, but not enough to notice when I get my receipt.

Holy fuck, I wish I could find a supermarket that's cheaper anywhere. Around here there are 3 giant supermarket chains owned by 2 people iirc and that's literally it.

Dempster's bagels have visibly shrunk in the most obvious way, the hole is bigger and the bagel is skinnier. Not even just a little bit either..
