I shop almost exclusively at Carrefour (not for much longer though) and 300,000 is a stretch to reach, booze not included, and for one person at that. I haven't noticed anything unusual, then again I'm a bachelor so I wouldn't notice. Can anyone give me an idea of what the price fluctuations have been like lately?

What a deal! Hey, we're only spending for two, food prices are lower in the Cholla Provinces, and I'm a cheap bastard out of necessity. And W300 a month is still way too high given what they could be if consumer choice were actually possible. Three hundred won a month? What a deal!

In fact it has been going on for about two months almost and not a bit of daylight yet. Needless to say it has cause prices round here to go up and quality to go down as there is an influx of customers to non union and union with new contract stores. Not really the same thing but still a pain in the butt nonetheless. Closet thing we have here currently is a grocery workers union strike going on.
