Price rises in the shops - what are you seeing?

[stickershock]

What items have you seen go up in the shops? I went to my co-op to buy milk yesterday. The regular kind was £1.55 (same as always, I think?) but organic had gone up to £2.55 😧😧😧(was £1.85 a few weeks ago)!! Also a bag of three paprikas was £1.60, has always been £1 for the last few years. (I’m in Central London if that matters).

Non-food: internet was £25 and has gone up to £28 since the pandemic (under introductory contract) and now will be £38 when introductory contract ends.

I’m a nurse and won’t get an increment this year, plus our pay rise is meant to be published but they’re saying it’ll be 3%. I’m pregnant with baby number two and feeling panicked often on how we are going to make this work. We are lucky to have two incomes, I don’t know how others will survive. Anyone else in a similar situation?

Literally everything has gone up around here. Easier to name things I use that I know haven't gone up (yet). Tesco's malt wheats (like shreddies), Lidl chickpeas. Felix cat food hasn't gone up in the last couple of months, but it went up 25p a box in the winter and forecast to go up again.

We've got three jobs between us. DH (main earner) isn't getting a pay rise this year), I'm getting 2p more an hour due to minimum wage going up for one job. I can't believe I'm getting 5% in my other job - unfortunately it's only 7.5 hours a week.

loads of things but my veg bill gone up drastically. Aubergines used be 80p a pack now they are £1.20
Paprikas
Onions
Apples are way overpriced. For nice red ones im looking at £2-£3

@baroqueandblue Aldi have started doing click & collect online orders, only one of the three near me do it though so it hasn't been fully rolled out yet

Son likes Cheese Savouries from Iceland
Were £1 and now £1.25

We used to do a weekly shop in Aldi or Lidl and it would be reliably around 50. It's now 70/75. The price of fruit seems to have skyrocketed in particular.

Fertiliser - was £334/m last year, cost £1034/m this year. Diesel was 62p last year, was £1.08 last time I bought some and I daren't look right now. And that is for growing bread wheat that will be harvested next month and eaten next year. Brace yourselves, it's only going to get worse.

@veganvampire fertiliser price increase is something I have never thought of before! Until I heard a program on Radio 4 a couple of days ago about bread and bakers. Really interesting.

Vegetable oil, was around £1 mark, now £1.85. Also, lurpak, that has gone insane!

@VeganVampire cost of fertiliser has been crazy this year. I'm glad we don't use much of it at all. It is a happy coincidence, my DH has been putting in different practices to move away from using it so compared to 5 years ago we hardly have any. We are beef though not wheat/ veg there is no getting away from it there. Filled up the farm diesel tank with €1,000 of diesel and it is practically empty again, getting half the amount for the same money 😱Also having to make sure the tank is secure lots of farmers being robbed for their diesel right now.

In terms of my own shopping, butcher used to be €28 per week it was €35 this week. Absolutely everything in Tesco has gone up from butter, bread, milk to crackers and sparkling water.

Which is annoying in terms of plastic and packaging waste and must inevitably cost the manufacturers

The only thing I’ve noticed is Ribena in Sainsburys was £2.50 and had a price lock, they’ve now dropped that and put it up to £2.75. It’s still £2.50 in Tesco though so I’ll just get it from there.

That’s always been the case though, likewise the crisps they have in the meal deal section are often just as much as a multipack in the crisp aisle. They just charge extra for having it near the front!

I've noticed that a lot of dairy products have shot up in price, such as butter, cheese and milk.
Also bread and bread rolls. A pack of eight Warburton rolls were £1, now you get six in the pack for £1.
I feel for families with children, it must be a strain on their finances with everything else rising too.

Also in Ireland and like a previous poster said...everything in the supermarket has gone up by at least 10cent per item.

Bought 500g of lurpak yesterday...€6.50! 😮

Muller corners have gone from £1.99 to £3.00 for a pack of six!! I’ll only buy them when they’re on offer now as that’s crazy.

In an EU country, food prices have rocketed across the board since the start of the year, prior to that they had increased but not by much and slowly. Butter used to be much cheaper here than in the UK, now it is more expensive. Only thing that remains cheap is bottled water, alcohol and cigarettes.

Turkey bacon - was £2 a pack, then went to £2.25 and now £2.55 in Tesco!! All in the space of a few weeks.

Many yoghurt brands - used to be £2 for 4 (at full price), now £2.25.

Oddly I have noticed a decrease in diet coke - the 24 can pack was £8.50, then £9 and then £9.50 but has dropped to £7.99! Very strange.

Inflation must higher than they are admitting really.

500ml Coke Zero

Was £1.10 now £1.65

Lurpak butter up 50p

@quiteathome yes, I believe it's based on an index of only a few items (like men's suits?!). Definitely what I'm seeing in the shops is far more than 9% for many items. It's eye watering.

The ONS publishes the full list of things in the inflation basket. They try to be as representative as possible which is why they usually tweak it each year to ditch things people have stopped buying/add newly popular things.

Lurpak is horrific. I don’t understand why it’s so much higher than all other brands. I’ve stopped buying it.

i pop to our local small coop in the evening and occasionally get reduced salmon, i wouldnt pay full price

I now notice that the offer price is actually the price I used to pay for the product at full price.

Large tub is on offer in our local supermarket otherwise I'm not buying it
