What exactly are you claiming has happened to the USD?
How far does your dollar go now compared to say 4 years ago.

I just got back from Rouse's... They have chicken tenders (raw not tyson) on sale for $1.48.. eggs were cheaper than Winn Dickme..$3.99 for XL.. They had Scott toilet paper 8 rolls for $6.97. Rouses cheese for $1.78 for shredded, sliced and block.. I got some other stuff and my bill was 50 bucks.
You paid more for less. Guarantee it.

I agree.. Just saying that I spent 50 bucks on not a lot of stuff... But I will say Rouse's is having somewhat better sales... I guess with Aldi's moving in..

Yeah the dollar is holding its own as far as that goes for now. The obiden admin has printed more money than every admin before it combined. It is only a matter of time before the dollar takes that torpedo also.

People get a lot less with Aldi. Somewhat like a dollar store with smaller things for higher prices.

Been married for 26 years, and I have always been the one to do the grocery shopping and cook in the family. There are certain things that have stabilized, but cereal, coffee, certain cuts of meat, bread/buns are through the roof. Usually if Publix is doing BOGO and I like the product I will load up. Usually try to go to Aldi once a week as well, as there are certain things much cheaper.

Not really, unless you are talking in terms of the quality of some of the products. But eggs, milk, butter are always cheaper (same size as the supermarkets). There are certain things like corn chips, that are not nearly as good as Frito Lay, but they are $1.77 at Aldi vs. 5.89 for Frito Lay at the grocery store. Same goes for some of the cheeses. There are other products, like their cereal that is just cheaper and tastes practically the same.

I'll look into it. Thanks.

Not eating processed garbage has its benefits. You fatties keep eating fast food and other stuff that’s unhealthy and keeping you obese and unhealthy.

Explain to me how the 1 pound of grass fed beef at Aldi is “less” than the 1 pound of grass fed beef at Publix or Kroger? You people are fricking retarded.

You keep saying this. Explain why I am getting things cheaper than listed other than the eggs? I don’t eat Cheerios or shite like that. How am I being negatively impacted by getting things cheaper? Walk me through your great logic. You fatties are too busy complaining about your $15 combo meal at Cane’s when I get almost three pounds of grass fed beef for the same price. frick off clown.

It probably depends on how it was produced and how it had to get to the end user, arse wipe.
