   Oh my, "Albertsons".....I miss Albertsons sooo much.   
      
   Yeah, prices have been increasing for years.  They just really did a major jump   
   here after the wicked witches, along with everything else.  I do see some   
   things   
   tapering off.  Groceries are still high, but I am seeing sales, and if its a   
   real   
   food, not a friggin bag of chips, then I buy it.  For awhile, I thought I was   
   going   
   to grow feathers....lol.  And fruit, well it was from the carton, as I am not   
   spending outlandish prices of fresh produce that is not even fresh.  I watched   
   the   
   $2.99 pound cantalopes rot on the shelves.   
      
   The Sam's close to me finally reopened, they had gas for $2.64, not sure if   
   its a   
   special or what.  All I know is I have not seen prices that low in many months.   
      
   I've got "back to school night" tonight, I am not in the mood for it.  By the   
   time   
   I stop the clean up, and deal with whatever the disaster of the day is, I   
   exhausted   
   and just want to eat and go to bed.  But I need to go and meet some new   
   teachers   
   they gained from the ones who left the state.
