Even the shittiest bottom of the barrel coffee like Cafe Bustelo is now $10 for a 10oz tin. Used to buy it at the dollar store years ago because it was maybe $2 for a 12oz brick. Especially sucks if you like good roasted coffee beans. We're talking nearly $20 for a 12oz bag now. I've just been buying staples like sugar/coffee/rice in huge bulks now like a fucking survivalist prepper or something because it's cheaper and limits me having to go out in public

I wish there was some way to coordinate mutual aid on this site anonymously, we could put funds together to purchase bulk stables and someone could mail out portions to the hexbear ration list. There are so many ways we could be doing things more efficiently as a society, the technology is there for it.
