Restaurant Price Increase`s

[S-3 Ranch]

Blows my mind. Took a load of steers to market a couple weeks ago and prices were garbage. Should be against the law how the packers screw the ranchers.

Christmas lambs was a huge mess also hard to come out with break even if lucky

We have been fortunate enough that we have only had a 5% increase on all of our menu for the year. Our food costs have risen higher that but we own our facility with no debt. I don’t know how restaurants can be profitable in today’s climate paying the commercial lease prices of 10-12 thousand per month. If we didn’t own our property the rising food cost and labor cost would have already caused us to close.

Wife bought me a shrimp poor boy for lunch, it was $12.50 with real shrimp in 2020
Today it cost her $18.00+On lunch menu , and was breaded shrimp ( mostly bread)
Everything food related is pretty expensive
I found a outdated box of cheese nips in my ranch pantry and it was 3/4 full unopened , had the wife buy more and the new box has 1/3 less @ the same price
Hate getting less for more $ but same box

This is becoming more and more common. It’s called Shrinkflation. Decrease the package size and keep the price the same.


Other things are decreasing in quality AND going up in price. For example, stranded copper wire. Copper clad aluminum(CCA) wire is being substituted for oxygen free copper(OFC) wire. I used to be able to get 25’ of 16 gauge OFC wire for $10. Now, 25’ of CCA 16 gauge wire is almost $13, and IF you can find OFC in stock, it is almost $20 for 25 feet. This is through an online retailer that I’ve used for years.

My college roommate, his mom was mayor of Galveston, and when we would go visit she would give us a list of restaurants that
The dog catchers got caught selling to but swore us to secrecy

Wait till you can't afford the food in the store.
We're just getting started imo.

The lowest pay I've seen is $13/hr now at a burger joint. I said lowest!

They'll have to raise prices a lot more IMO over the next 3-12 months.

They are going to get their $15/hr one way or another.

People need to stop thanking Biden and shift their attention to the personal level and address it with friends, family and acquaintances who vote liberal. That's the only hope.

This another hot button right here:

I went to 2 timewise gas stations and walmart gas looking for ice over near fulshear and all the ice bags were 7lbs for 2.59. 7 pound bag of ice for the 10 pound price. I usually stop at bucees but every now and then i get jammed up. Kroger near my house had the same 7lbs bags the other day.

This is my opinion also. About to go through another 80
's. Once it gets so bad there's enough demand for the white/black generic isle to come back we can start healing.

It's really amazing to watch people lose a huge % of their money to inflation and so few people to understand who to properly blame (or even care).

They are going to get their $15/hr one way or another.

Most already pay over $15/hr. FYI
