BS! There's absolutely nothing I've seen in any grocery store that has only gone up <10%. Most items are 20% at a minimum, but more like 30%+.

Not only that, but shrinkflation has affected everything! "Pasta products: +8.3 per cent"... yeah, you're paying 8% more for 50% less!

"Potatoes: +9.3 per cent (+7.6 per cent)" again, 9% increase but you're paying for 5lbs instead of 10lbs bags! You get half the amount for twice the price!

"Apples: +6.6 per cent (+10.6 per cent)" Where have they only gone up 6%??? Apples used to be $0.49 - $0.99 / lb, and now it's pretty common to see $2.99/lb for apples grown down the street!

"Dairy products: +7.4 per cent (+7.5 per cent)" Nevermind that, because non-dairy products have doubled in price!

Food, clothing and shelter are becoming a luxury lol.

Nope!

Maybe it's because things are so expensive in Toronto already, but the prices hasn't gone up as much as people talk about here.

Sure, things have mostly gone up 20% or so all-round, but the sales are just as cheap, if not even cheaper than they were 5 years ago. If you properly take advantage of sales, your bills shouldn't be any higher than before, and maybe even lower considering that 50% off sales happen pretty much every month, when before you'd only get them like twice or three times a year.
