Instead they're raiding their freezers and pantries.

I pick up stuff in the store all the time and look at the price and shake my head and put it back. There are so many things that just aren't worth it anymore.
Like, any snack food at all. Don't know why they thought bumping up the price on junk, impulse food was going to hold for long. They were easily the first thing I stopped buying.
We've stopped buying nearly all premade foods and instead buy more ingredients. I used to cook twice a week but the past few months it's nearly everyday and I'm kind of happy about it!
Cooking is the way to go, better for you and your wallet. Just sucks the work that goes into buying, prep, cooking, storing, planning, etc. Keep it up!
I bake all my food. Easy peasy.
Yep. Whack it in the air fryer for 15 minutes and Bob's your uncle.

The box of snack size chip bags are $11 at Walmart near me, nope I'll pass
Yeah, a regular (new regular after shrinkflation) bag of chips is $5 now. No thanks.
