I just went to the grocery store yesterday. 2 of them because I usually only buy things on sale and they are right next to each other. Cheapest eggs was the store brand selling for $4 per dozen. I paid a little over $5 for a dozen not store brand. Also gas went up in my area from $2.75 to $2.99 per gallon yesterday. This is in Missouri so prices have not gone down significantly here.
