About a month ago, I posted an article, Why You Should Cautiously Worry About Grocery Prices.
While I’d never consider myself an alarmist, there are some grocery items I’m watching a little more closely right now.

The question came up on a budget Facebook page I’m involved in, and the answers are compiled below:
“If you stocked up at the beginning of COVID, what were your best purchases? What did you buy that wasn’t the best purchase?”
Hey, we’ve got some scary stuff going on and more to come! Have you guys seen some of the crazy lists out there about what & how much food to have on hand when you catch the fast-spreading Coronavirus?
