they have 9 kids! Which, go ahead and have 9 kids, but no one forced you to do that, and 9 kids are gonna heat a lot of groceries! Should maybe plan for that!

That 2.79 per gal it went up to? It's about half of what I pay per gal of milk. Still crazy cheap, even if it's gone up, and most things have not gone up by that much.

I wonder what their total grocery bill, each week is? Probably spend $50 on cereal, thus the milk -- nm - flavorize Nov 6, 08:23
It was known about the kids. I thought (most are adopted/foster IIRC) -- nm - ty97 Nov 6, 08:19 5
- Also a difference between adopted and foster kids. Parents get payments, for care, for foster kids -- nm - flavorize Nov 6, 08:41
- But also, milk on average nationally hasn't done that price change. -- nm - ty97 Nov 6, 08:20 3
  - I've been paying $2.19 a half-gallon for 2-3 years at least. That lasts me two weeks :) -- nm - Meg Nov 6, 09:13 2
    - I've been paying $zero for ~50 years. It's been that long since I tasted it. -- nm - mud Nov 6, 09:28 1
