I think it's bad.. The higher oil goes the more everything else costs.. Everything's gone up except income.
I think it's fucked up that my electric bill is now double what it was just a month or two ago and at slightly just over half the consumption.
I remember buying 10lb bags of potatos at $2.99 a bag just a month ago or so and now that same bag is now $4.99. The large cans of coffee I bought at $5.99 are now $8.99.. Yeah, big deal you say since it's only a couple of dollars but add to that the higher cost of pretty much everything else added to that..
I spend an everage of $700 per month on food shopping and this did not include take out, drive thru, convenience snack stops or whatever.... Now that same $700 in food costs about $925
A few hundred miles round trip to visit my daughter that used to cost me $80 is now $115
Driving my wife to and from her job is $100 per week.
Heating my home last winter was $275 to $350 per month last winter.. I think this coming winter it's going to fucking break me if natural gas goes up.. haven't seen this happen yet but think it's coming soon..
I'm seeing this whole fucking economy & high gas prices taking a negative impact on me personally and I don't like it.. I think it's definitely a cause for the drop in sales/conversions
