I had to run to RK today, and went past the seeds. A pack of beans, or peas or any other veggie is like 3 bucks! This is getting way out of hand I think!

Good job Dad. It's because of you that BOTH of your kids (Son and Daughter) are experiencing the wonderful upbringing that they are.

My hat is off to you. You can expect your children to grow to be responsible, talented, well rounded adults.

LMAO ! I no longer have a wife so my Bourbon cost per bottle has gone WAY up !
Cost of garden seed does not bother me as I will till it under this spring and buy my veggies.
The local farmer can use all the outside help he can get $$$.

Three plus years ago my fence contractor was paying $30 for a 31' stick of drill stem.
Now the cheapest he can find is $105.
Three plus years ago heavy wire 4ft no climb was $150 a roll.
Now it is $450 a roll.
B!&$nomics at work.

Wow, beer is pricey up there. I was not happy when my 30 packs went up to $17.50 last year.

That $50 CAD per case, is a mere $37 converted to USD..

My sister after retiring from banking for a year went to work at a large grocery store in New Hampshire.
She said the Canadians will come in and buy 5 or 6 cartons of cigarettes at a time, $90. A carton. And say they are way more in Quebec
