    Many of us are earning somewhat comfortable wages and still have to be stretching our money. I can't even imagine how lower income workers are managing. Thinking about a single parent with school aged children. Many lost jobs during the pandemic. It's crazy. We really need to be our brother's keeper.

    Coupons and a list for me!!
    Plant vegetables and herbs if you can.
    I'm in NY and I started a garden in my backyard last summer.
    I cut out red meat and am mostly plant based now.
    I will definitely lose some fluff and get healthier.
    This is crazy even more so for single Income households.

      Well done. 💪 I just stated above, that people should start growing their own food from seeds bought in market etc. Yes you are right including your herbs. You know you can grow your own rice? RUclips shows you how. As soon as I get my wages, it flies out the door! This is a worldwide problem.
      The Bible says shrewd is the one that sees the calmity and conceals himself! So people are starting to feel the pinch hard! Growing your own food is a good solution.

    The cost of living has gone up in Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 as well. What my family do is keep our old bills for our next list making. We record the item and it's price next to it so that in our next shopping we'll have a better idea how much exactly the prices raised by and where is the best option. We also do calculations for the quantity eg.is it cheaper to buy the 100gram vs the 300gram when you calculate the cost per gram. It's a lot of work but you can save money with it..every dollar adds up

    Paul, I can Identify with what you are saying...The cost of living is extremely high here in Barbados. And we experience the same thing with respect to the supermarkets...you have to be very selective as to where you do your 'big shopping' as some of them are very pricy. God said he will take care us so we have to continue to believe that no matter how high they take the prices we will not be in lack.

It would have been nice if u had flash the US conversion so ur International subscribers could do a quick conversion but I agree with every word u said. Just today on my drive from work I was thinking to myself if my social security payment will be able to maintain me when I'm at that stage of life. I trust God

I'm blessed beyond measures...lol...but yea we just have to trust God and live my brother.. when I go to the cashier I ask to cash and check (total amount) if I can't go up to everything I say ok I'll put back these ok..mi nuh fraid to put back.. who want to look..look lol 😆

    People everywhere are feeling the pinch Paul... Cost of living has increased. You pick up a few items and when the cashier tallies the bill you are like "what did I buy for so much money?" My weekly grocery shopping habit has now changed to buy what you need 🙃 Everything you said is true...To fill my tank I pay between $60+ to $70+ CND...Boi... it sticky...When I was in Jamaica I used to go to a wholesale to buy bulk items such as flour,rice sugar and canned foods, then a meat shop to buy meat.

    The costs of living in Europe are months by months up in the last almost 2 years.
    Basic food prices rose by 20-40 per cent, housing energy prices by 60-70 per cent and fuels by 35-40 per cent, unfortunately.
    We, Hungary, are experiencing only about a 15 percent increase in these costs due to long-term agreements with energy and fuel suppliers, thanks to good governance. As well as thank God, a good economic development policy has brought an average of 25% wage growth in the last 2 years.
    Thus, high inflation is not felt in our country.
    But in many Western European countries, this winter (long dark and cold days) has brought many unpaidly high heating and electricity bills .... You can feel the despair and insanity in the neighboring countries.
    We pray that this wrong tendency stop soon.
    All good for you my neighbors, too 😊

    Morning Neighbours, Greetings to you all. Cost of living has gone up here in the 🇬🇧. Minimum wage is less than £10 an hour here. Petrol and diesel is nearly £1.50 a litre. Not gallon. Gas and electricity is sky high and is going up by nearly 50% soon. And again in Oct. People are having to decide do I heat the house or by food.
    It's bad. The grass is not always greener on the other side.
    The cheaper supermarkets are carrying the swing. (Aldi and Lidl)
    I feel your pain. We are going through the same thing here. You have to turn your hand and make fashion.
    Use less meat and more vegetable to bulk up your food. And start growing your own vegetables. Lettuce, tomatoes, callaloo, potatoes, beans, garlic, onion, pumpkin. I do it here in cold UK. Every little bit helps.

    If you have family in foreign ask them to send you carrot seeds, cabbage seeds, brocolli, icedberg lettuce seeds etc to grow
    You can even save some rice grains and grow your own rice! Look up RUclips how to grow rice.

    Paul it is ridiculous how the price of everything is going up. If you spend $15,000 this week when you go back in 2 weeks and pick up the same items it's over $20,000. Don't even mention the gas, sometimes I park my car and take a taxi because I simply can't afford it anymore

    The prices are indeed terrible. Currently I don't even know where to shop to avoid high prices. My husband also has the don't buy gas in Kingston rule. We stick to the Portmore Texaco for our trusted 90. Based on my profession I watch costs so I always use to compare at the supermarket. I don't like the fact that many prices aren't shown and I have seen the $15-100 or more being added in short intervals. With the war in Europe the gas prices especially will get higher. Thanks be to God for our faith and hope in Christ because this world is not easy to live in for many reasons.

    220$ for beef patty Paul at Juci beef... what I do my ordinary bread at home is what I use with my patty as my patty and cocobread If I do feel for that ... one loaf of weekender bread at the baker I go (directly at the bakery where it is cheaper) 550$ tell me now how can an ordinary Jamaican family survive on 9000$ minimum wage. Then remember most of us are still trying to build ourselves a comfortable home and it's not yet completed and look at the price for building materials plus workmen money.... Some paying rent ... But what about those who not even own the land yet muchless to start ... And bills have to still pay ... Only God can help us and there's no price control on anything "everybody" just have them own price people have to be shopping around to see how best they can stay within a certain budget..... SIGH SIGH SIGH SIGH SIGH

    So, I am in the US...Georgia to be exact. The cost of living is high here too. Luckily I have a job that allows me to work from home. I have 3 sons...1 who works full time, 1 who is in college, and 1 who is in high school. Their dad is "supposed" to pay child support for the youngest but he doesn't. So I provide the majority of the support for my youngest and I help out the one in college. I am blessed that my oldest son helps me out with them too. Anyway, my job pays me well but after I pay bills and do for my kids I am BROKE!! I have a question for you, I'm not gonna say the company I work for but they also have a call center in Jamaica. In the US we work from home but there its in the call center. I have always been curious if the workers there make the same as what we make in the US? Anyway, yeah..its hard now and its getting worse. Here, putting gas in my car it used to cost $30 to fill it up but now its $50 or a little more depending on how much I need. The gas prices are going up here too. Bless you and your family. You are right...God will always provide or allow a path for you to be able to provide. You just have to believe.
