Couldn't have said it any better! Food prices never went down after the gas prices a couple of years ago and neither did many other things. They all felt we would pay those prices forever and decided not to lower them. Now here we are again at almost the highest gas prices ever so I won't hold my breath over any prices declining for quite awhile. The transportation costs will keep everything high for quite a long time.
