The Price of Groceries!!

I went grocery shopping today and spent $166. I feel like I did not get anything at all. Meat is so high. Eggs are almost $2 a dozen, milk $5 a gallon. I paid $3.19 a gallon for gas today. It is crazy. What are people going to do? We need a new president bad. I have never been a politcal person, in fact I have never voted. I know how un american and how bad as a woman. It always seemed I was busy that day or it would fall on my son's bday 11/5. This year may be different for me. For one I am going to work on getting out of debt. I ordered Dave Ramsey's program and Mike and I listened to our first lesson today. The first lesson ( a baby step) is to put away $1000.00 in savings quick. I am so lost and so in debt. Don't know what to do anymore. Everything goes up and our income does not adjust up for the cost of living. We are both going to get second jobs. The price we must pay away from our kids just to stay afloat. A sacrfice we now have to make.
