A Moment (Or More) Away

~ John ~ 2 Comments

I have had to do some things so I haven’t been blogging too much. My Internet provider informed me he was going to have to terminate my internet service through no fault of his own …which probably means that he has not paid his bill ….so I have had to find a new provider. I am pleased to announce that I have found a new provider and am on target to run for a while longer yet. This provider is located in Lawrenceville, Georgia, USA and has been in business for a long time and has nothing but rave reviews. I am a happy cat once again.

Aside from that, it has been snowing here again ..on and off and on and off again …a heavy wet snow .. a bitch to shovel ..but even thought we are 84 years old, we got ‘er done and are still alive as far as I can tell.

I have recently gotten a little tired of bitching and moaning about Trump and Russia and Ukraine … I wish somebody would just call Putin’s nuclear bluff and go all in for pushing his ass out of Ukraine while it can still be done ….Both sides of this conflict are now getting assistance in the Ukraine battles from “Their allies” which means that there are now a bunch of nations involved and if people want to talk about a world war, then I believe that with all the allies involved, we are already there.

People Raising Chickens To Beat Rising Egg Prices
That is one idea to beat the price of eggs these days … raise your own damned chickens. But I am wondering, with the price of chicken feed and the time and effort required to care for the birds, “Is it really worth all the hassle?” My idea to get the price of eggs under control is for the American People just to boycott the damned things and tell the egg producers, “Bring down the price of eggs or stick them in your ass!” There are things that can be substituted for eggs and here are at least 13 of them — https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/egg-substitutes
I say “Hit the greedy assholes in the pocketbook. It worked on coffee a few years ago and beef too! When the People get mad enough and start the boycotts, the greed mongers will crap their pants and do the right thing. Would it be such a bad thing if there were no eggs on the markets at all? Human Beings are very adaptable and I am sure they can find a way to do without eggs if it comes down to it.

How To Save Money On Groceries During Times Of Inflation

~ John ~ 2 Comments

Editorial by John


Inflation is a natural part of the economy, but it can be a major burden on your wallet.

As prices rise, it can be difficult to keep up with the cost of living, especially when it comes to grocery shopping. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to save money at the grocery store during inflation. Read on to learn some tips and strategies to help you save money on your grocery bill.

1. Plan Ahead: Planning out your meals for the week can help you save a lot of money. By planning ahead, you can create a grocery list that is tailored to your meal plan, eliminating any unnecessary purchases. This will also help you avoid impulse buys, which can add up quickly.

2. Shop Around and Compare Prices: This is especially important when it comes to non-perishable items. Take some time to compare prices at different stores to find the best deals. This is especially important when it comes to items that you buy often, such as toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and other household items.

3. Buy in Bulk: Buying in bulk can be a great way to save money. Look for items that are on sale and buy in bulk when possible. This will allow you to stock up on items that you use often, and you’ll save money in the long run. Just be sure to check the expiration dates before you buy.

4. Buy Generic: Generic items are usually significantly cheaper than name brands. If you’re looking for a way to save money, opt for generic items whenever possible. This is especially helpful for items like cereal and canned goods.

5. Use Coupons: Coupons can be a great way to save money on your grocery bill. Look for coupons online or in the newspaper, and be sure to use them when you can.

6. Avoid Pre-Packaged Items: Pre-packaged items are usually much more expensive than buying the items individually. For example, it’s usually cheaper to buy a head of lettuce than it is to buy a pre-packaged salad mix.

7. Shop at Discount Grocery Stores: Discount grocery stores are great for saving money during inflation. These stores often have lower prices than traditional grocery stores, so you can get more for your money. Inflation can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to break the bank. By following these tips, you can save money at the grocery store during inflation. With a little bit of planning, you can stretch your dollar further and make the most of your grocery budget. Just make certain that it is a true discount store and not some shyster outfit offering fake discounts through phony customer loyalty cards or something. Ask your friends.

8. Be wary of stores that offer discounts through their “Customer Loyalty” card. Often these stores raise base prices on their products and then offer the consumer a portion of those “Savings” by having the customers swipe their customer loyalty cards at the checkout. This kind of artificial inflation results in the fact that the supposed “Savings” the customer enjoys are artificial, counterfeit, and nonexistent. It is an illusion and all it does is tempt customers to buy more than they really need.

9. Be wary of “Closeout” stores that appear to be “Bargain” stores. Many times you can find merchandise at a much cheaper price at regular retailers than you can find at these so-called “Bargain” outlets. Shop around. I cannot stress this point enough. I once found some men’s cologne at a so-called bargain store that was priced almost twice the amount that it was being sold for at a local regular Pharmacy. I also found a so-called bargain store selling much smaller packages of cereal for the same price that the regular grocery store was selling them for.

Do not let the crooks victimize you. And the crooks are everywhere these days.

Has the high price of eggs got you going a little cross-eyed? Here are a few ways you might find helpful to cope with the fucking you subject yourself to when you try to buy eggs in today’s greed-driven inflation.

First off, you have the option of telling whoever is selling you the eggs at a shitty price to stick them in their ass and look for something else or go somewhere else … like to a local farm …to see if someone out there is honest enough to let you have some eggs for a decent price. (I would not suggest asking a Republican, however.)

Here are more suggestions:

Eggs are one of the most important staples in many households around the world. Unfortunately, the prices of eggs have been through the roof lately, making it a struggle for many families to afford them. This can be especially difficult for those living on a tight budget. However, there are several things you can do to cope with the soaring prices of eggs. Here are a few tips to help you out:

1. Buy in Bulk: Buying eggs in large quantities can be a great way to save money. Look for deals at your local grocery store or online and buy as many eggs as you can afford. This will help you save money in the long run.

2. Look for Alternatives: If you’re looking for ways to get the same nutrition without breaking the bank, consider alternatives such as tofu and tempeh. Both are high in protein and low in cost, making them great alternatives to eggs.

3. Make the Most of What You Have: If you’re already in possession of some eggs, try to make the most of them. Find creative recipes that use eggs and make sure not to waste any of them.

4. Stock Up When Prices Are Low: Keep an eye out for sales and discounts on eggs. If you see prices dropping, stock up and freeze them for later use. This will ensure you always have eggs on hand, even when prices are high. These are just a few tips to help you cope with the soaring prices of eggs. With some planning and creativity, you can make sure your family has access to this important staple without breaking the bank.

.5. You might consider asking your bank for a loan so that you can buy a few eggs. The way things are going, you can probably get by with an egg loan in the amount of around Fifteen Hundred dollars.
