I raise grass fed cows and the price of heifers is through the roof. I just paid 800 for them. I don't eat much beef because I also was born with a bad kidney but believe you me, the rancher is not getting rich on the new price. Also, here we are unable to buy gasoline that does not have at least 10% ethanol. If we would ever stop having freezing weather, I plan on a garden. The produce in our stores is not very good and squash is 2.99 and tomatoes 3.49. Won't take much to recoop the price of seed and plants. However, I just paid 2.49 each for pepper plants. Should have started them myself.
