What price increase has shocked you?

My favourite Vimto sugar free squash.. was always £1

Yesterday - on offer at £1-80

*Actimel - Asda and Sainsbury almost double price, every couple of weeks used to be 2 packs for £4, now one pack is £3.75!!!!

Dentists - do you really believe they sanitizing extra? Definitely not.

Joint's of Beef . The price is just ridiculous. We stick to Pork or Chicken at the moment .

spaghetti still 23p in Tesco.

Anchor butter... £6.50 a tub (Tesco, Asda etc)

Dip dabs went up from 20p to 45p. I used to get ds 5 for helping with the shopping now he only gets two…

I don’t look at individual pricing because it’s too depressing but I buy mostly the same items every week with an Asda online shop, this time last year it was always around £90-£95 a week, this weeks was £132.

OMG £7??!!

The price of haircuts has increased quite a bit at my usual salon

Whiskas pouches 12 pack, £3.49 to £3.80 jumped this morning to £4.50.

@anybloodyname Vimto works out at £1 per litre if you buy the big bottles in Iceland. I only go in there for that!

Pine nuts £3.40 for a tiny bag. Now officially my luxury item.

Home Bargains vimto squash still £1

Thank you @mrsnec I do forget about Iceland !

In fact you've prompted me to go and stock up on a few Slimming world meals while I'm there 😂

Seriously ?
£9 !?
Ty for the Danpak advise, I will try that.

Since I moved back to the UK my biggest shock is public transport. A single ticket to my next nearest big town is £4.75. It's 5 miles. A return ticket on the train 1 stop, 8 minutes costs £11!

Hairdresser - yes!

Pre covid I paid £16.50 for a trim, an inch or 2 off the bottom kind of thing, I would wash my hair before I went and she would sometimes dry it off but not blow dry. Or I would leave with wet hair. During covid it went up to £22 as they insisted on having hair washed there. Now I am back to my normal cut, I wash myself, cost is now £26.50.

Taxis- £10 to go about 2.5 miles? Really? And not in London.

For dentists it's worth seeing if they have denplan
I think I pay about £17pm and it covers 2 x check ups, 2 x hygienist and any work except lab fees

My sons milk was around £1.05 in 2021, now it's around £1.70 and often out of stock. Costs about £10 a week for milk for one toddler under two, never mind all the other dairy & egg & nut free alternatives he needs.

Milk has really jumped up. Tesco was £1.09 for 4pts now £1.35.

Shrinkflation rather than price increases bothers me more somehow. Less honest.

10 choc ices £1 in co op now 6 for £1

Lurpak spreadable butter. I used to buy it when on special offer at £2.50. Now it's £4.50 with no sign of any special offers, and may have gone up again since last week. I've bought Aldi's own version instead, the ingredients are exactly the same as Lurpak and apart from looking a bit yellower it tastes the same.

Also large nuts and raisins in m and s £11

£11 ????

@daffodilandtulip I'm sure it was Warburtons rolls I bought at 89p/12 in Aldi last week.

Broccoli. It's doubled in price.
