Dear readers, the cost of living here has been so high that I can really say that this is the first time that I feel the effects of higher costs of living so hard on my pockets.
Most of the food outside have had their prices increased and not only that, what I have observed is also that the serving of the foot has also reduced. This is why I have shared in previous posts that for such scenarios where I pay increased food prices, to find that the portion of food has also reduced, I called these inflation and shrinkflation!
And even for food stalls that I patronised that keep their food prices the same, I can tell the portion of food has shrank, and this is definitely a shrinkflation.
One thing that I could not really agree with is the higher cost of food containers when it comes to take-aways. I understand that when we were in Covid-19 lockdown period, food containers were high in demand and hence it was understandable that containers were charged more. But back to the Covid-19 easing now, these higher price tags of food containers seem to have stayed, based on my experience.
That is why, I think, one way to save on your meals outside is simply bring a container for take-aways to save on the paying for the food containers.
