All Poles notice the high prices in stores. Unfortunately, there are no indications that commodity prices will fall in the near future. As announced in the NBP’s inflation report, the cost pressure related to high prices of agricultural raw materials, energy, means of production and labor costs continues to drive food prices up. The report also states that food inflation was over 20% in January. For this reason, many people are looking for ways to save money and when shopping, they give up products that burden the household budget.
I don’t buy vegetables that are out of season. From October to April I go on silage. In addition, I buy less chemicals and pay more attention to prices. The cheaper powder will also wash my fleece. It may not smell great, but it’s clean? Is. I don’t buy new clothes either. I’m almost 30 years old and proudly wear my mother’s clothes
Joanna enumerates.
“When I saw the prices of cauliflower and broccoli, I turned pale”
Ania also buys only the necessary chemical products. Previously, she could not imagine doing laundry without fabric softener. “I used to buy a big canister and never go without it,” she recalls. Now he doesn’t use it. It also limited other household chemistry products.
I only have three or four specifics for everything
– explains.
I also save water, light, I try to turn everything off, even when I leave the room for a moment. And from food products – butter. I stopped buying them because I can do without it, and it really costs a lot
he adds.
Aleksandra, in turn, tries to look for cheaper substitutes for products that are expensive. It turns out that online shopping comes to the rescue.
After finding out that toilet paper is more expensive every time we go to the store, my husband started looking online for a cheaper option. It turned out that we can buy the same product online at a much lower price. In addition, our dog was hit a little by the ricochet. We had to change the wet canned food back to dry
– says.
Many people also give up buying new clothes. Second-hand stores and vintage clothing markets have returned to favour.
I almost completely gave up visiting chain stores in favor of thrift stores. Anyway, I’ve always liked shopping in second-hand shops, things from there are unique, I like to give them the so-called. second life and I usually come across something original. It was also dictated by economy, and it became a pleasure
Asia says. Magda, on the other hand, saves on groceries.
I eat a lot of vegetables and I regret that they are so expensive. I used to do a lot of shopping, and now I try to dose it all and ask myself if I really want to eat it or prefer to let it go. Recently I had this with cauliflower and broccoli, when I saw the prices, I went pale. And I ask my partner if it really has to be broccoli with these chops, maybe carrots would be better
– he tells. And you, what are you saving on?
