[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1732868, member: 32659"] Was reading earlier that Americans outlook is bleak and spending is slowing down. Have your spending habits changed? We hadn't really slowed down much but prices were on our mind more than usual. The last few weeks I would say we've started slowing down on groceries. We don't live on any sort of budget and honestly I normally didn't look at prices for things we needed. I definitely look now. On another note I bought 15 sticks of sucker rod yesterday for $180. Last winter I was buying it for $6. It's doubled for no apparent reason. Not sure where this 7% inflation nonsense is coming from. Sure seems like prices are up more than 7% [/QUOTE]
