Inflation Down! And just in time for Thanksgiving!

Here's how much a typical Thanksgiving Day feast will cost this year

Overall costs for a typical Thanksgiving meal, including the usual fixings, are also modestly lower compared with 2022, when prices hit a record high. Dinner for 10 will cost an average of $61.17, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation. That's down from $64.05 last year but an increase from $53.31 in 2021. Those figures include the cost of typical side dishes such as cranberries, dinner rolls, green peas and sweet potatoes.

Catch that? Dinner for TEN people is only $61!

It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

Even my bologna sammiches cost more

My grocery store stopped selling white bread because they want to be more inclusive.

Between this and the 18 cents I saved on my 4th of July BBQ, I am putting a real nest egg in place.

Yeah, I uhh...find that quite dubious. I bet even that Bob Evan's "family meal", or whatever, costs more than that.

According to this website, it's around $86 (for "up to" six people).

This must be calculated using the Jogger equation where they factor in stealing the turkey.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

No way!
I went to the regular store that i use last night and 1 item..... increased from $11 last year to $15.
I may delete some things that are not worth the price increase.

Remember

Under democrats, you can steal up to $900 with no fear of being caught, so that $60 is on top of the $900 you have already stolen

I somehow spent $300 today for Thanksgiving stuff, and I'm not even hosting it this year. Are these estimates based on spam and crackers? (Super Ded fkn Srs)

WTF are they smoking? My sweet potato casserole alone is $15 worth of ingredients. The salad is $10-15 worth of ingredients. I may spend under $250 this year since two people coming are bringing side dishes and I already have a lot of ingredients in stock most of the time. 2 of the 9 people who will be here are under age 4.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

I'm buying chicken and I'll just tell my guests it's Turkey. With the dressing and gravy they will never know.

In for sweet potato casserole recipe. The wife does a 50/50 sweet potato/yam in her mashed potatoes. It really sweetens up the gravy nicely...

"Anyone else can't afford to pay bills and eat anymore?
We are a little above the household median income, and our our spending habits have restricted but even still, we just can't keep up since all bills are on the rise and food costs have more than doubled in the past year.

I suspect many of you out there are in a similar position.

Someone should do a real poll on this so we can see the truth that the Globalist media and Biden masters don't want you to see.

The reason they don't want you to see the truth is because they are intentionally demolishing our economy.

It doesn't take a genius to follow along..

-They changed the formula for how they calculate cost of living inflation, leaving out things like the cost of food, gas, energy. The stuff most middle class and poor people pend most on.

-Then since things aren't so bad, they go on an insane woke spending spree and suddenly half the kids learn to be gay at school. We are throwing away trillions of dollars to support the mass slaughter in Ukraine that is more of a satanic globalist sacrifice than it is a "war.". Obviously, there is no way ever, even in hell for Ukraine to beat Russia in a war.

-Now half of the country is behind on all loan payments because the lower and middle class mostly lived paycheck to paycheck essentially, and they did not get a real, accurate cost of living increase because of the lies about the inflation rate by the Biden administration that is intentionally collapsing our economy and right not instigating WW3.

-Soon half of the banks are expected to collapse.

-The financial sector is quietly adopting a new (soft) social credit system which has already been quietly implemented where banks are communicating via 3rd party loophole to undermine the current credit system. Essentially, things that fell off the credit report or were left off, will be communicated in this already going new social credit system, forever. (Who you going to sue, who you gonna tell? The government, Biden administration and deep state masters are behind it )

-They intentionally lied about inflation, destroyed the economy on purpose and have already implemented undermining the current credit system so that you will not be able to easily buy a home at a good rate if you can even qualify. Those rates are going to go up and up by the way. This is just the beginning. 2008 was only foreshadowing. At least with the great depression, they were able to recover. This won't be the case and is not their real plan. Obviously, our government has been overthrown and they are ending our nation or at least constitution soon.

-The icing on the cake is that the banks, lenders, government with the help of commie Experian, will soon start allowing people with no credit score, or history to get a home loan based on a paystub from work.

-That's right, they are forcing existing US citizens from their homes and giving them to illegal immigrants.

-Welcome to commie land.

How many of you are drowning in the Biden economy?"

People talking about spending hundreds on a dinner is why I don't believe anyone around here when they pretend to be concerned about Biden's economy.

Here's the original source. Obviously we're talking basic tier food, which is plenty good enough for many to be thankful for.

Fuk you azzhole. We saved 4 cents on hot dogs during the 4th of July celebration in 2021 and 8 cents in 2022 and 16 cents in 2023 and we will save 32 cents in 2024. Inflation is wayyy down. Biden is the best. The best of the best.

Unless there's been a big recession prices aren't coming down. At best the inflation rate dropped.

Fixed that right up for you there 'tard.
It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.
