Grocery Prices

How much was the meat per pound? Seems a lot.

Grocery prices are on hike here too. Eggs, chicken, fish or any other sort of meat have got expensive here too.

Meat is more expensive in my country. At least the meat I buy which is the best. I spend less in other things though. I do not buy beverages at all.

Meat has gotten outrageous here. Many other foods have too.

Grocery prices are crazy. I heard that coffee prices are going up and I've noticed an increase last time I bought one at Sam's Club. Your ground beef is slightly more than here but not by much

The price of meat here depends on where they come from. Local and those imported from China are cheaper. Japanese and US meat are more expensive.

Not bad at all. I remember when my grandmother could get a good-sized roast( big enough to feed four of us) for $3. Those days are LONG gone.

I hunt for deep bargains, but I go to many stores. Meat - it all depends. There is a particular Ralph's out my mom's way (related to Krogers, which we do not have). They have the best markdowns if you go at 9am. Often I can get meat there at fairly inexpensively - sometimes more than half off. But of course I have to use them up right away (unless I freeze them). Sometimes I can get ground beef for less than $3 a pound!

I must be honest. I do not look at prices when it comes to my needs.

That sounds like the same prices here.. We shop at Winco their prices are cheaper than Walmart.

We buy a 5 lbs tube of 80/20 ground beef for $24 at Walmart here.

Meat is expensive here but it doesn't work to try to equate it to your prices. Everything seems to be going up.

I think our meat is similar price to that.

It seems you got a decent haul for $55! The prices for items like ginger, coffee, and half-and-half seem pretty standard. However, $24.43 for 4.5 pounds of lean ground chuck does seem a bit high compared to some areas. Prices can vary significantly depending on location and the store, though. How does that compare to your regular grocery shopping?
