Where to "get" food: the problem of "wild prices"

- I have been plagued by vague doubts lately, either people completely lie about low salaries, or they all know where money is given out just like that, I alone do not know. - Wrote to me on Saturday, a colleague who made a trip to grocery stores. - Or maybe the people somehow learned not to eat?

She lives in the Yaroslavl region. The family is large, six people. Lots of pets. Food costs from sixty thousand per month and more. And this is without luxury. Without salmon-trout, caviar, delicacies and other things.

It would seem that two thousand a day is a lot. But if you count on the number of eaters and look at the price of more or less high-quality products, it becomes clear that not such a large amount.

But spending has doubled, if not more, over the past couple of years, and diversity has suffered, she believes. There are almost no fish. The cheeses have dropped in quality.

And yet - she increasingly refuses shopping in places that have become familiar for a long time. Because prices are off scale all reasonable limits.

To be honest, I myself increasingly prefer purchases not in stores, but in wholesale markets.

Because it is retail, no matter how it claims that it operates almost at a loss, that creates a huge trade margin.

On the same Saturday, early in the morning, getting ready to visit his relatives in Belarus, he bought โ€œhotelsโ€ from us in Foodcity.

Four huge dorado, each weighing about five hundred grams, cost 1000 rubles. In ordinary stores, I have not come to dorado for a long time, the price is too biting.

The fish were safely baked on the grill upon arrival.

A rack of lamb came out at 450 rubles per kilogram.

A box of Dagestan pink tomatoes, seven kilograms - 250 rubles. A huge bunch of thyme - 100 rubles. In a shop "on the block" this bundle would be divided into four parts, and each quarter would be pushed by a hundred.

Halal chicken spare parts, breast fillets, we charge 250 rubles there. Meanwhile, in any store, an ordinary mutant broiler is more expensive if the breast is taken. And this broiler will still taste bad.

This is not an advertisement for the market, it is just a statement of facts: retail increases the cost of products, often by several times, and pursues a policy that it is better to rot food than to sell it with a small profit. And at the same time he constantly screams about losses that need to be compensated.

Yes, the cost of products and the manufacturer is growing. And from wholesale suppliers too. However, the last in the chain, the store, sometimes has a wild appetite, especially where competition is small.

It is not for nothing that large manufacturers are increasingly appearing in hard discounters with huge "economy packages". Well, there are more and more buyers there and in the wholesale markets.

At least I see this situation around.

What about you? Where do you buy products? Do you prefer large purchases sometimes or a little often?
