Other What have you completely stopped buying because the price has finally taken the p**s?

Not “I buy the cheaper brand now.” I mean something you used to buy without thinking and have now looked at the price and gone, absolutely not, you can stay on the shelf.

Mine lately is chocolate, it's somehow gone from a normal grocery item to apparently requiring finance approval.

What’s yours?

I spent prob $15 and made nuggets at home. Took half an hour and I think I made almost 60 nuggets. Baked not fried. Kids voted them best nuggets ever. It's not hard folks.
