Treb's post about Kroger and Albertsons merging.
If you think you're typical grocery store prices are outrageous, you should try dealing with truck stop prices. Yesterday I stopped in a town with a dollar general right across the street. I picked up three of these paper towel rolls for $1 a piece. In a truck stop for the same size $2.69-$5.79
Last year I stopped at truck stop that had an actual grocery store . The prices were decent. Produce was fresh. As I was walking around I noticed a 75%-90% off sale on meat. I see signs for ribs, t-bone steak, porterhouse, chicken drum sticks, New York strip steaks. I am thinking I am going to grab a couple of steaks, throw one in the airfyer , have a microwave bake potatoe, maybe a vegetable or salad, I am all excited planning out my dinnerToday I found the 85% lean ground beef had increased from $6.49 to $7.49 per pound. I bought three packages of 90% lean that was marked down to $ 5.29 a pound. The meat counter was pretty sparsely stocked and a dude had his chart out and was changing prices. I'm pretty certain the prices weren't being decreased.

Until I reach the refrigerator/freezer section and I Started looking at the meat . Some of the meat is grey, some is purplish/red, some is a strange shade of blue and then there is the meat that is green with little black dots
some of the stuff had been expired for almost a year. Needles to say I didn't have a steak dinner that night
