00:00Some items in supermarkets have risen. Have you noticed an increase in your kind of weekly shop,
00:05or do you think stuff's too expensive at the moment?
00:08Yeah, I do notice that we spend, for two of us, nearly £100 a week, which is probably
00:16£30 more than what we used to spend. So yeah, seems astronomical.
00:21Prices in supermarkets have risen around 50% over the last year.
00:26Have you noticed shopping getting more expensive?
00:29Yeah, of course, yeah, yes.
00:30Is there anything in particular that you found, like a weekly shop or anything like that?
00:35Yeah, I mean, everything is increased, like the necessities, the price of just any type of food.
00:43To me, yeah, like some items have doubled. So yes, yes, definitely.
00:48Yeah, well, nothing is actually coming down at the moment. So the prices are rising,
