Streamline Your Expense Management with the Best Expenses Receipt Format for Product Quality

Expenses receipt format for Product quality

every time I go buy groceries it seems like everything is so much more expensive so I dug up an old grocery pickup receipt from this time last year and I went to that same grocery store to see how much that same list of groceries would cost me today if you're worried about the accuracy of this test let me put your mind at EAS real quick I took economics in college I should first say this is very unlike me I never used to look at grocery prices I would just buy whatever I wanted but all my money is going away so fast I need to figure out why I feel so poor even while making a pretty pretty decent income as a designer so I'm not quite to the old grandma collecting coupons but I'm getting close starting with the item that saw the biggest jump in price you guessed it eggs last year 18 eggs cost us $159 and today it's $4.89 that's a 27.5% price increase this is of course not because of inflation but the AV and flu recently caused an egg shortage so the price went up but still 207% increase is a lot but at the same time I mean $4.89 for like 4 Ms is pretty cheap okay moving on I was surprised that a lot of stuff actually stayed the same price like the exact same price and one item even dropped in price like by a lot oat milk what's going on no one like oat milk anymore hey I'm not complaining more oat milk for me and my protein shakes for all you oat milk haters out there no okay almond milk is gross regular milk gives me the Toots so here we are speaking of dairy they're saying the biggest price increases are in Dairy and meat these cheese slices went up by 24.5% a half gallon of chocolate milk went up by 42 33% and a 32 o bag of Mexican style shredded cheese went up by 14.31% it's crazy how much prices have gone up in a single year well later in this video we're going to look at a receipt that I found from before covid and compared to today's prices and um it's way worse it's way worse in the meat aisle 1 pound of ground beef went up 37% from 509 to$ 6.99 ground turkey went from 449 to 5.99 a 33% price increase bread saw a pretty big jump in price with a 27% increase Quaker Oats are 33% more expensive but the most heartbreaking one for me at a 51% jump in price from last year is GT's Kucha they used to be 250 maybe GT Dave actually was the villain all along oh my God that's the most villain I've ever really is so the total for this basket of goods in 2021 was $14.93 and today was $1 12756 that's a 10.99% increase 11% increase now I'm obviously going to take all this information to my employer and ask for a 10.99% raise it's a cost of living raise they'll definitely go for that right I've personally never received any kind of raise to match inflation I've never heard of anyone that has but a lot of people on the Internet seem to think that this is something that should happen we have never given an inflation raise in the history of this company nor will we okay you are paid what the position pays in the marketplace you're paid what you can be replaced for with rare exceptions we give everybody 8% raises because the news says inflation was eight went up 8% you can't afford to do that number one number two it's not fair number three it doesn't make sense from a business perspective you need to communicate this but the reality is is let's play this out they think that they should get a bump for inflation so if we play that reasoning out that means take it away as soon as inflation begins to subside and they wouldn't be cool with that either by the way if you're enjoying this video please subscribe to the channel we're trying to catch Dave Ramsey and subscribers and we're getting close we're getting close one thing that Ken Coleman was saying in this clip which is a little bit silly I love you Ken Coleman he reacted to one of my videos so I got to give the man some love I recently came across a video that's done very very well on YouTube comes from Jake faren and his channel he had two full-time jobs apparently crushing them in both but then he gets caught you got to see the story we're going to going to react to this in real time here we go from J his whole argument for like okay so you want to raise to match inflation but what about when inflation goes back down then are you going to get a pay cut in that case but if you look at the chart so this is the 12-month percentage change in inflation so you can see inflation got up as high as 99.1% so you might think like oh I should get a 99.1% raise but now it's come back down to 5% so then would I have to give back that 4% cuz inflation's come down so when inflation goes up price go up right what about when inflation goes down then prices are still going up they are still going up but just at a slower rate so if in one year a standard grocery run for me is 11% more expensive how much more is it now compared to before covid when all this really started picking up like look at the increase over the last year compared to clear down here in March 2020 so I was trying to figure out how to see the prices from before covid then I realized we used to do a lot of grocery pickup at Walmart so I searched my wife's email and boom a receipt from March 2020 Man March 2020 what a strange time so we headed to Walmart to hopefully discover why we feel so poor now starting with the biggest price increase yeah yeah you guessed it uh this thing used to cost three bucks it's 10 now that's a 2 131% price increase the next biggest jump at a 63% increase is this bag of frozen chicken breasts it's a 3 lb bag it went from 5.94 to 974 that's wild quicker oats went up 54% this 10lb bag of potatoes went from 3.49 to 597 that's a 51.52 per increase milk went up 47% this peanut butter is 43% more honey is up 42% rice is up 32% and all these items also saw a pretty big jump in price since 20120 while we were doing our shopping we came across the Mr Beast febles display and it looked terrible complete mess so I took a second to clean it all up I got your back Mr Beast no worries so the total back in March of 2020 for this basket of goods yes I'm an economist basket of goods was $171 and today the same basket of goods would cost you $1 151.90 that's an increase of a whopping 29.89 per. that's a solid chunk of change if money's feeling tight for you right now you might enjoy this video where I break down my monthly spending thank you for watching and I'll talk to you in the next one
