Where in AZ does one find a $10 burger? Not here in Prescott. Maybe the single at McDonalds, but a proper one at any sit down restaurant will set you back $20. The 2-egg breakfast is spot on at $16 and on up. What’s $5 for two little strips of bacon as an add on?

Other essentials: $10 for a 6-pack of any reasonable beer. Ammo? Hell, $1.50 a round for any magnum pistol and $0.50 for 5.56.

If you ain’t cooking at home and reloading yer shit, than you’re either pretty well off, or scraping to pay the rent.

Biden’s legacy…

Took my wife and daughter out for a Saturday morning breakfast at a local Denny's. I remember when a "grand slam" cost $4.50. You got two eggs, a sausage link, a slice of bacon, hashbrowns and two butter milk pancakes. Today? $16.50. Plus tip, breakfast at once affordable Denny's cost me over $64.00. What does this do to the economy? Well, for starters it means I don't go out to eat nearly as often as I used to. Going out to eat now has been limited to very special occasions.

Remember the $5 foot longs at Subway? Now a footlong chicken and bacon ranch on flat bread costs nearly $13.00 and the workers are always stingy on the addings. I always have to ask them to put more on the sammich.

Thank God I stopped drinking a long time ago.

Bird flu?

A 60 pack of eggs now costs $34.00 at Winco Foods. The claim it is the ongoing bird flu. Personally, I think the chickens are striking and want double the salary. But that's just me.

I just picked up 2 dozen at Aldi for $5.99. So weird.

People don’t get they are conditioning our behavior. They push us toward third world-type grocery stores where eggs are cheaper. The rich shop at Whole Foods.

Same high prices long before bird flu arrived.
