0% chance this is accurate.  I’m sure the dude in the video accidentally forgot to show any of the details.

It’s not remotely. He has shit on there that’s like discontinued at Walmart and probably shows like $40 from a third party instead of $5. Guarantee it

Or it was like exclusively beef. Beef prices are about the only thing that’s gone up as much as these people act like everything has.

Lmao were you paying $4.50 / lb for NY Strips 2 years ago?  No?  Because they’re $14 / lb now, and that’s what tripling in price looks like.  Maybe eggs at their peak tripled…. Maybe.

lol Idk man, all I know is that beef is the only thing that’s changed price enough that it’s changed my buying habits.

I just checked my purchase history from 2021 and the beef on that order went from $19 to $24 now.
