Prices On The Rise Before The Holidays - 11/22/2014

Hello everyone.  I went out for breakfast at McDonald's and got sticker shocked again.  The Sausage McMuffin, Sausage Biscuit and Hash Browns went from $1 to $1.19 plus tax.  I think that this is a pre-emptive price hike due to the minimum wage hike from $8 an hour to $8.23 per hour in Colorado effective New Year's Day 2015.  Also, at the nearby Starbuck's, the price of a tall iced coffee with milk went up 30 cents from $1.95 to $2.25 plus tax.

This is a good time to stock on your favorite foods before the prices go up with the coming of the new year.  Also, it is a good idea to buy items in bulk again.  Portion out your meals and economize.

That's it for this post.  Until my next blog post, have a good day.
