@zoedippel: $155 to $500 is CRAZY!!!!! WHAT?!? No wonder we are all struggling to survive out here. 🤣 Our parents had it so good!!!! #fyp #viral #heb #groceryshopping @H-E-B
And to finish blowing your minds… in 1997 minimum wage (in TX) was $5.15/hr. Now, 2025 we are at $7.25/hr. Figure that math out. The prices increased about 152%. Minimum wage increased only 40.8%. The item now requires 79% more work time than it did in 1997. 🤯

For reference, in 1997, my dad’s salary was the same as what I’m earning today. My mom didn’t work and they had 3 kids. Today, my husband also works and we have two kids. We cut it close every month.

The ink on that receipt was even better…. Receipts now look like they haven’t changed the ink since 1997.

If it has the purchase date on there, you should do this again next year in 2027 when the receipt is exactly 30 years old and see if it changes

And some of that’s gonna be shrink inflation. Which means you’re getting even less for more money.

Don’t put it into the curbside section since people are crying that the price is higher. Put it into a list and it’ll still show the in store price at the top of the list

Adjusted due inflation $155 would be $312.
The extra $192 needed is the problem.
