NeonPunk posted:That's the future they are hoping for. The whole "organic" fad won and they're going to slap an organic label on everything so they can justify an large price increase on everything Years ago I was grabbing coffee at some random shop or another and the person in line in front of me asked about their 'organic' coffee and then proceeded to lecture the cashier about how there were very specific standards you had to meet to call your coffee organic and if they weren't from the coffee fields from Organia they could only be called sparkling coffee and he clearly did not know or care what she was talking about but clearly she was a harbinger for these dark times.

That Works posted:ive used the tiniest bit of detergent both for the laundry and the dishwasher for years and both always come out just fine. ive long since been convinced that the suggested amount are massive overkill so that you buy more. This is also true of toothpaste. The amounts they use in ads is insane.

err posted:Idk how families are surviving, shits probably rough with kids. it's credit cards it feels like that can't possibly be the explanation, but it is, and basically every consumer debt metric backs that interpretation unrionically would not be surprised if years of "credit cards are good, actually" messaging has made it extremely hard for people to realize when they're overspending on them because it's so natural for just about everyone to put routine expenses on a card

Jel Shaker posted:with the reusable diapers we also noticed that too much detergent over time builds up and they start to smell, and now we use significantly less than recommended without problem a concentrated enzyme cleaner is good to splash in (Tergazyme or something)…works a treat on period panties too if you happen to be surrounded by women and girls or are one

I'm willing to bet the number of households that couldn't make ends meet without credit cards (don't ask what happens when they're tapped out) is way higher than anyone wants to admit right now.

PerniciousKnid posted:https://www.propublica.org/article/college-high-school-research-peer-review-publications quote:On a family trip to the Jersey Shore in the summer of 2021, Sophia’s go-to meal was the Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich. The buns were toasty, the chicken was crispy and the fries didn’t spill from the bag. I probably should be outraged, but right now I'm puzzled why people in the Northeast love Chick-fil-A so much.

Interesting that Kashkari and Bullard both said more rate hikes coming. This is after Powell was pretty much saying they were done.

I thought Powell just hinted at a pause. I never got the impression they were backing off on a higher terminal rate.

Paradoxish posted:I thought Powell just hinted at a pause. I never got the impression they were backing off on a higher terminal rate. It's all Kayfabe. They're going to cut before the year is over, I know it. The market consensus is that hikes are done, so the fed is saber rattling to try and spook markets a little.

I would bet they don't. The market is delusional and I think the best case scenario (for the money spigot) is that we plateau where we are into 2024 at a minimum. The only way that changes is if a legitimate recession looks inevitable.
