Not only have they raised prices from a $1 to $1.25 they have also added items up to $5. I don’t even consider it the Dollar Tree anymore, it’s not the same, getting more like a Dollar General. The manger said “it’s wonderful and about time for the price change”, I said “no it’s not, I liked it the way it was, it’s been like that since the stores open and why people still shop here.”
I learned a lesson about these dollar stores. I bought some spray starch at a Dollar Tree several years back, thought I got a great deal, until I saw the same bottle at Target for .59 cents.
Moral of the story is make sure to know the price of something somewhere else before spending $1 at a dollar store.
A 25% increase in prices at a particular store doesn't equate to 25% inflation rate. It could mean that the currency has inflated 25% since they last set their prices -- but that's also not likely, as inflation is only one consideration of many for setting prices.
Agreed. And despite all their attempts to separate me from my husband and keep me from having babies, here I am. I want more babies too! God is amazing.
The guy can be pretty cool and chill when he's just being a normal work dude. I couldn't care less that he's gay. Unfortunately, that's happening less and less. Lately he's been in this weird "sassy queen" mode where everything offends him and he's snarky most of the time. It's even starting to piss off our (relatively) laid back and tolerant boss.
I just don't get it. He likes men, I like women, so that's something we don't have in common. But he went from being someone who could talk about games and movies and food to being an uptight asshole. He was fine until covid and Masks. Now he's a douche canoe.
Thats how a lot of my family ended up. Its like their social justice warrior switch was turned on and everyone except their own group think kind, are the enemy. I hope they wake up. I have no problem with my gay friends. As long as they aren’t shoving it down my throat or my kids throats Im fine. I am not without sin.
I had an actual conversation just yesterday with a normie-boomer about the current state of our economy. His true perspective is we are not in a recession...
So get Silver. The price of Silver is even more manipulated than the price of Gold. Silver comes out of the ground at a ratio of 8:1 to Gold but the price is 91:1 right now.
Way too many people still do not understand the importance of Gold and Silver and the role it is about to play. I just posted about it. Hopefully, people will wake up and see the big picture before it is too late and they have to learn the hard way.
I'm still waiting for an invoice to be settled so I can score another 250 Oz of Silver, and the wait is killing me because the price is so low right now :)
They are letting paid mercs in over the southern border to disrupt commerce and burn farms, businesses, and oil facilities. These people are paid to assist with the takedown of the US and we are being too dumb to see it. We need to shut down the crap and take the country back or there will not be one…..all you have to do is look at all the distractions
The FED is fucked. They have no outs anymore. The only choice that seems reasonable is letting the markets absolutely crash. It is the only thing that will combat inflation. Raising rates will not work unless you raise the rates higher than the rate of inflation. Not happening. That will artificially crush the economy worse than a crash.
Get ready folks. These demons created a monster they can't control. But it will give further credence that NO ONE accepts their CBDC bullshit digital currency. They lead us here, they get no more from us as a people. We take it back after they crush us one last time.
It truly is worse now than at the recession. Even during that time I never saw gas go above $4.00 where I am. Gas hasn't been below $4.35 for months and months now. I don't think we'll see gas below $4.00 again for a LONG time.
Keep in mind: the actual inflation rate is always about double the official number.
More. Dollar Tree raised prices from $1.00 to $1.25. Real inflation is closer to 25%-30%.

Yep we just went to a Dollar General and what we bought were 5 bucks.
But does that account for the increase gas/shipping costs as well?
It's not inflation when they do everything possible to raise gas prices, for sure

And we are just over HALF WAY though the year.
Let's Go Brandon
Oh yeah Im feeling the pinch. Holy cow. Pray for the young broke families with kids cause we are hurting.
Praying for you. It’s disgusting what’s being done to American families ON PURPOSE.
Agreed. And despite all their attempts to separate me from my husband and keep me from having babies, here I am. I want more babies too! God is amazing.
Gay liberal @ my 'day job' : "serves them right for choosing to be breeders..."
Me, in response: "that's funny, back in the day people said the same thing about homosexuals and AIDS"
The shocked silence was priceless.
Id love to hear that lol
Can’t be a faggot without first having a mom and dad 🤷🏼♀️

Stack physical silver while you can.
Moon soon.
GME and physical silver crew checking in! NCSWIC WWG1WGA WORLDWIDE 🇸🇪🇷🇸🇺🇸
Same plus Dwacw and some call options on mining companies. When silver pops I want to sell those,and keep my shiny.
I’m on HYMC and DWAC too.
Also got me some DWAC
Silver and GME ape here xxx oz owner and xxx stock owner when the stock splits. LFG
Are you me?
I recognize your user name. Beers on me when we moon brother.
Amen to that brother!
I'm loaded up on GME and emergency food and water.
I had an actual conversation just yesterday with a normie-boomer about the current state of our economy. His true perspective is we are not in a recession...
I guess the TV hasn’t told him yet.
Get physical Gold and Silver while you still can.
Heh, gold. If only I could.
So get Silver. The price of Silver is even more manipulated than the price of Gold. Silver comes out of the ground at a ratio of 8:1 to Gold but the price is 91:1 right now.
Why do you think I can't ever buy gold 🤣 Any time I have enough for an ounce, it's hard to pass up how much silver can be bought.
lol. That is smart.
So in economies that actually did experience hyper inflation (zimbabwe, venezuella, turkey), did they start using gold and silver?

Thanks for posting this - it's a good argument against the idiots who say that gold and silver will be useless in any kind of collapse.
Way too many people still do not understand the importance of Gold and Silver and the role it is about to play. I just posted about it. Hopefully, people will wake up and see the big picture before it is too late and they have to learn the hard way.

"Derrrr, who would set the price of g/s in a collapse."
You do.
But that also only matters if people have hope in a rebuilt future.
Gold and silver becomes worth less than food, water and bullets in a total collapse with no hope.
Civil war going hot would be pretty spicy.
Buy, DRS and hold Gamestop.

Not good
Y’all got lentils? I got lentils.
Love me some lentils.

My products are well over 100% more than a yr ago that I buy for my business. It's around 140% increase
Brutal!

My mother and in-laws helped us finally buy a house. After what was three years of brutal bid wars.
My mother finally woke up to me asking her to look into who's buying out the houses. Blackrock connections everywhere. Rates are hitting the fan here.
Looks like the stock markets love some raging inflation.
Ugh, the stock market had lost about 20% of its value this year.

It seems that it started in April 2021, so it’s not that much covid related because it was the end of covid and beginning of vaccines.
It really looks like manufactured.
