Yes, I am sure. Read exactly what I wrote, we cycle the same list of recipes (we have 60 or so to choose from that we like). We keep to the same brands (Bush's beans are the best, for example). And, yes, I keep detailed records - scanned pdfs of my CC bills as well as receipts from Publix. A person who would have a curated list of recipes their family likes, would probably do this, no? Will I share them with you to prove all this? Hell no.

>Will I share them with you to prove all this? I bet it would be delicious ;) But no need, as shown in my other comments an accurate bit of anecdata can be revealing enough for me, and there's no reason to hesitate accepting this as the real hard-core record-keeping-based measurement of grocery cost beyond which most people are doing. I don't doubt the accuracy of the ~30% decline in purchasing power but what can not really be pinpointed is time, like how long it took for double-digit dollar inflation to be reached before it was reflected in your documentation. My closest guess is 30% over 2 years so about a 15% yearly rate is what you've had I would estimate.
