Most of us can relate to what you are saying Cynthia---It seems every week, we spend more money and bring home fewer groceries!
Great blog!

From the regular package they went to that Family Size...but the content are the same.
Nobody can beat the ones that chase the bucks out of your pocket.

Well, I certainly understand what you say, and altho I am now retired, on a fixed income...it gets as tough to manage for one/two as it did when I was a single mom with three under six! We made groc day a treat...looking for the bargains..the day old produce, breads, etc...and then God provided the miracles for our items to stretch til the next payday! Honestly, I don't think we've ever had control of the markets or purchasing power...not to the extent that it would really get things going our way... We just keep doing whatever we can...and I pray that you will continue to manage your own home/family needs..Have a good day, hugs,lindalaw

Cynthia, I have noticed the exact same thing. It's hard not to notice, when the cost of groceries gets higher and higher, but our paychecks stay the same! I don't know how you do it, as a single mom, trying to feed three children. Good luck to you, and God bless :)

I have noticed the growing Cost of things myself, and so many companies, going under, because they can not afford to keep going, but I believe we have hope, we just have to look to it
