Quote from Betty1995 on November 8, 2019, 8:29 pmugh, another day and i just feel like i'm barely keeping my head above water. picked up groceries at safeway, cost nearly 200 dollars, still felt like i was missing half the stuff. the kids are fighting over the tablet again, its only 5pm. i had to work late grading papers, probably wont get to bed before 11. my husband is out with friends, which is fine but then im alone with all of it. i used to love this time of year but now its just stress. has anyone else felt like this lately?

Quote from SnowfIN on November 9, 2019, 3:42 pm@Betty1995 I feel you on the grocery bill! Mine was $175 yesterday and I swear I still had to make a run for milk. Totally overwhelming.

Quote from Siltratio on November 13, 2019, 1:00 amSafeway prices are insane lately. I'm starting to think about shopping at Aldi more, even though it's a longer drive. Just gotta get a quarter for the cart.

Quote from Soft1995 on November 14, 2019, 8:59 pmYeah, Betty, just surviving feels like a lot some days. I tried to make a quick dinner and ended up ordering pizza because I couldn't find the pasta.

Quote from Barbara919 on November 17, 2019, 10:45 am@Betty1995 I hear you on the groceries. Mine was almost $180 and I live alone! It's just ridiculous what they're charging these days. Makes me want to start a garden.

Quote from HappyHeart on November 20, 2019, 5:48 amOrdering pizza when you can't find something is totally the move. I did that last week when I couldn't locate the rice. It saved my sanity.

Quote from linenarmistice on November 20, 2019, 8:08 pm@Betty1995 Oh my gosh, $180 for one person is wild. I'm so tired of the grocery bills. I had to get extra bags just to carry everything.
