The reason why people are still buying is because people are working two and three jobs just to make a living, one job doesn't work anymore.

When I leave the house, I put boiling hot water in a thermos and close it for 20 minutes. Then I heat up my food and put it inside the thermos. Sometimes, I freeze the thermos and then put 370 g of Greek yogurt and one scoop of protein in there. Then I eat a banana with it. It’s really not that hard, you just have to be willing to put in the small amount of effort to make it happen.

Sit down places have become much cheaper and faster than fast food places. I waited 20 minutes at chic fila a month ago, and they got my order wrong. I ordered Chili's tonight online, didn't wait and by the time I got there the food was ready, there's other options, these greedy fast food joints won't learn until we give them the neon lit sign, inflation is artificially high because of these places, there's simply no other reason, farmers aren't getting paid more... It starts with distribution and works it's way through the likes of McDonald's, do you remember when they played games with eggs a few months ago... people started raising their own chickens and others were buying from those people, eggs quickly found its way down to a normal price, and even dipped to a 5 year low here, people stopped buying them.

It may work that way for some people. The last time I think I may have eaten McDonald's was possibly during Obama's first term.

GREED. We are not paying these executives more by paying their higher than necessary prices. They raised prices because they thought they'd get away with it.

I actually do that! There’s a couple of restaurants I go to for take out food. I can actually get a meal, 2 of us eat it and it’s cheaper than fast food. We have a Mexican restaurant where we can get a child’s meal for $6, And the portions are so large, I can’t even eat the whole thing. Years ago, for the fun of it, I would see how cheaply I could make a whole meal(per plate). It would consist of neat, starch, and vegetables. The last one I did was 92 cents! And the portion sizes on the plate were not small either. My husband said he would gladly pay $12.95 if that was in a restaurant. I’m todays higher grocery prices, that same meal may cost me $2.00 to make. So many people today just don’t know how to manage their money.

We have switched to small restaurants too. The, "picking up n a fast bite while out" behavior is running us 500 per month with 1 child! We are going to be more intentional with how we spend money going forward. We will go on a mother daughter date once a month and choose a nice place. My daughter is tough, she fasts. We told her you can make due out with a pband j, or a protein bar, a cheese buiscit and fruit. We're going out less anyway sine our marshal arts place went out of business . The rents were raised on them and they went into foreclosure. Tons of small business are closing.

Reduce the size and scope of the Federal government now. They are spending money we don't have. Time to rein in this incompetence and stupidity.

Stop supporting ridiculous minimum wage increases to levels that have nothing to do with the skill to work there. That's what's causing a lot of the increases. It's also a magnet for more migrants to cross the border.

@@GregoryAlanBaileygamereviews Compared to what? Simply saying "it is good" provides nothing.

What makes people livid is shrinkflation. Prices go up and size and quality go down. A couple of weeks ago Burger King ran a special - 2 Whopper Juniors for $5. I took a bite on the way home and I turned around and headed back. I thought I had no meat. By the time I got there I found the meat - paper thin and it filled about 1/2 of the bun. Needless to say I'm not going back. Low quality food at high prices is no longer attractive to buyers. Do something else or die.

In California it’s because of the insane $20.00 minimum wage……stores are closing because of this
