Doing my ongoing comparisons, which are facilitated by my being able to review past purchases in the WalMart and Fred Meyer apps, I've noticed that some types of items have skyrocketed in price, while other types haven't.
In particular, prices have zoomed skyward on:
Coffee
Fresh fruit
Salsa and hot sauce (drastically!)
Meat
Eggs
Rice and flour
While prices have remained relatively stable on:
Baked goods
Prepackaged meals
Dairy products
Canned goods
Snack foods
Much of this can be explained by the influence that Turdiffs have had on the cost of imported goods. But I was wondering if there are regional variations. I'm in the Pacific Northwest. Are the patterns I've observed prevalent elsewhere as well? Or is some stuff cheaper or more expensive for you in your part of the country than in mine?
