To ask the most insanely priced supermarket item you’ve seen lately? Bet you can’t beat this

[Greenlabelss]

Co-op, bin bags £5.90

i know co op is notoriously a piss take but seriously?

another was Tesco, cooking oil, £9

I bet they were good bin bags though, what were they made of - angora wool?

Tesco- salted butter, own brand- £3. Which is £12 a kilo!

Azera coffee - £7.45!

Was it a little co-op? In which case it's more of a convenience supermarket? And also bin bags are super shit for the environment.

Must be to balance out the fact that everyone uses their carrier bags to line the compost bin, so the 5p charge does absolutely nothing to deter people from using them. I actually go to the Co-op specially to stock up on carrier bags for the compost bin.

Standard Colgate toothpaste, not a whitening one - £5.50!

Teapigs teabags £9.15!!!

Yeah the price of olive oil makes me gasp these days.

Over £7 in Aldi, used to be about £4

What do you use instead of bin bags?

I have come to terms with olive oil being the same price as a bottle of wine with the reasoning that the bottle of wine will only last a couple of days but the oil will last for ages. I acknowledge this is very first world, privileged reasoning.

!!!!!!!

I saw a salt mill in the co op for 3.50 the other day. Just a tiny salt mill.

Probably knits her own from chickpeas.

@Livinginaclock I needed that chickpea comment in my life today. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Four rolls of kitchen roll.

£8

I know Italy didn't have a good olive harvest this year so I think that may have upped prices.

co op has always been ridiculously priced for everything might as well get it delivered from Waitrose off Uber eats

Yes stuff has gone up. But a hell of a lot of wages have too.5 years ago my cleaner charged £11 an hour.... now she charged £17. 5 years ago I earned £95k now I earn £150k.

Wage inflation goes hand in hand with rising prices. I don't really get why people are surprised.

Oh my Lord, read the room.

Co-op Heinz tomato soup £1.90

Err, not for everyone, it doesn't!

Standard size jar of Nutella spotted tonight - £4.25 (Co-op).

That might be true for non-public sector... For the rest of us, not so much...
