On CNN yesterday, they showed this one family that now spends $300 more per month on groceries.

I understand most people may not be affected by this, but for those on fixed income may have some problems.

if you are cutting back, tell me what you are cutting back on.

Have been for close to twenty years. Collectively, we spend close to $300 a month on groceries, though I attribute part of that to the cost of living here in Atlanta.

Beelz, they'd say they were welcome, but their mouths are presently crammed with the aforementioned foods.

Voted : I am cutting back on medicine
I work like a mf-er. But medical tests and meds take a backseat to food. Clothing? Nick-nacks? Jewelry? Hee hee.

I havnt cut back, groceries are cheaper here now than they were 6 months ago

I don't know. I'm not cutting back on anything because I'd be cutting back on pretty much nothing. I think food prices have risen though, but everything where I live is expensive. I mentioned in another ballot that I sometimes go to this Deli in the morning for this amazing Yogurt Parfait. That Yogurt parfait is $6.95. It seems a bit pricey for a cup filled with yogurt and fruit. I recently saw something similar in another state and it was $2.95.
