Don't feel bad, the insurance companies in FL are asking for up to an 89% increase in some counties.

My homeowners went up 150% this year, because I had the audacity to use it. Consumer Reports published my letter a few months ago expressing my joy.

TH, RE: "Inflation? I got some stinking inflation." Was at the grocery store today, and noticed 15% to 25% inflation on three items. There appears to be a local inflation in food prices. Some of the fish and meat had increased by as much as 10% too. Though no significant change in milk prices that I noticed. The grocery clerk complained about how inflation of gasoline is eating away at her raise - she said she can't keep up with inflation. It's becoming cheaper to eat at a restaurant than buying food at a grocery story. Watch Greenspan this week. My bet is Jan's cpi wasn't good. Once he starts raising interest rates again, we'll get a double whammy - PEs will contract further. Regards, Amy J
