LETTER: On inflation, they get you coming and going
Paying more at the gasoline pump is a sign of the times. At least you are getting the same amount of product and octane. That doesn’t seem to be the case at local markets these days.
Many items — such as fresh cookies and muffins, etc. — are the same price or higher. But the manufacturer has repackaged them in smaller (sometimes half) containers or even decreased the size of the product itself. The old switch-er-roo.
