I have sticker shock from the prices. A small piece of soup chuck to make a pot of soup was $10.59 a pound. This is supposed to be the cheap meat. And I even skipped a food group ... chocolate. Even I won't spend $5 for a small bag. Stock up now, because this is only going to get worse.

Our inflation-hedge plan is more frequent trips to the grocery store to purchase meat close to the sell-by date. Deep, deep discounts. More than 50%. We throw it in the freezer or cook that day. The freezer is getting full, so we’re transitioning to canning what we can. You have to cook the meat first, and can it with a pressure cooker, but it’s good for 18 months, and won’t spoil in a power outage.
