not op but high inflation, decent dips in the stock market, gas still a dollar and a half or so over the average it was previously, etc
My grocery bill for 1 person went from $40-50 to $70-80/week.
My gas went from $30/tank to $50/tank.
I'm really blessed to be in a position where I can afford that without too much issue, and work from home where I can mitigate the effects of gas prices.
2 basic expenses of mine increased ~$160/month. I can't imagine how hard it hits a single parent of 2.
