Coming home from my run/walk, I stop at Shopper's Drug Mart. I get a bottle of water, and a big bag of chips. No, not a small bag of chips, not a medium bag bag of chips, it was one of those BIG bags of chips (No Name, ripple, reduced sodium).

$0.99 for the chips. That's right, nintety-fucking-nine. BIG bag of chips.

Then when I got home I threw the whole bag in the garbage. You couldn't pay me to eat potato chips.

LMFAO
Count the lies:

1. Shopper's Drug Mart now becomes Real Canadian Superstore

2. 'No, not a small bag of chips, not a medium bag of chips, it was one of those BIG bags of chips' now becomes a 7.05 oz. (200 g) TINY bag of chips

3. 'Coming home from my run/walk' now becomes 'I've been sitting around on my fat ass all day and didn't buy any bag of chips in Vancouver. I looked up the cheapest, tiniest bag of chips I could find on the internet and pretended it was a BIG bag because I'm so butthurt and embarrassed that Paul was right about inflation and I was wrong. So I tried to fake it. Just like everything else about me.'

Yes, they are affiliated. They sell the same house brand "Simple" and "President's Choice" products and share the same Optimum Rewards card program.

> 2. 'No, not a small bag of chips, not a medium bag of chips, it was one of those BIG bags of chips' now becomes a 7.05 oz. (200 g) TINY bag of chips

200g is considered the standard big bag of chips in Canada. Maybe it's different in the United Obese States of America. But you'd know much better about MEGA size packages of junk food than I would. Didn't you say you eat those repulsive soy isolate "burgers?" LOL

So I tried to fake it. Just like everything else about me.'

Well, if you had an IQ over 70 you would have realized it was a joke that I bought a big bag of chips because they were so damn cheap and then went home and threw them out because I don't eat them. I don't buy chips and I don't eat chips. I am on a low carb, low fat, low sugar, low sodium, intermittent fasting diet. Luckily I have a gourmet chef on staff (my wife) to make everything delicious. And no, I am not worried in the fucking least about 6% food inflation, which I already predicted a year ago. Are you?? It must suck to be poor. lol

Just for the record, a small bag of chips like Paul was talking about is usually about 40g. So about 16 cents (US) by the above referenced Canadian prices. Paul said he paid $3.49, or almost 22x more for his. And he's worried about temporary 6% food inflation?? LOL Here's a life hack for you poor people who are worried about grocery prices: STOP FLUSHING YOUR MONEY DOWN THE TOILET. 6% inflation should be the least of your concerns. And y'all are welcome at my table anytime.

A thicker, sturdier potato chip with Ruffles ® trademarked ridges. Nutrition Facts. Serving size. About 12 chips (28g)

That's 2.33 grams per potato chip. Just for the record, peabrain, 17 potato chips is not a BIG bag of potato chips.

I just looked in the car and the empty bag is still there. It says 3.5 oz net weight. I'm thinking it's possible the guy behind the counter just made a mistake. I don't go back to that casino until Thursday, I will try to stop at that mini mart and see if that was the correct price. The more I think about it it just doesn't seem right. I had just lost a couple thousand dollars so maybe my mind wasn't on the chips until I got in the car. I went in there looking for beef jerky or potato salad, but they didn't have what I wanted. The day was a loser. I did use a $50 gas card from an earlier promo, gas was under $5 at the Indian gas station. It was my last card with any gas on it.

If the guy behind the counter is as dumb and dishonest as Blabbermouth you might have a fight on your hands if he insists it's a fair price for a massively H-U-U-G-E bag of chips.

Maybe that's because you said you bought it at Shopper's Drug Mart, which was a lie. All you actually did was an internet search for the cheapest chips on Earth that are probably made from rejected potatoes. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Because you're butthurt that Paul was right about inflation and you were wrong.

Why do you keep digging?

It was 200g. That's over 7 servings by your calculations, and the price was about 1/7th of what Paul paid (now that he disclosed it was actually a medium bag, not a small bag as he originally claimed). But..but..but...INFLATION!! THAT's the real problem. Dumb motherfuckers.

I didn't lie about anything (unless you want to call the obvious joke about buying them and throwing them out when I got home a "lie."). Paul paid 7x more for his chips than I would have if I actually ate complete garbage like that. What's a guy who just had a heart attack doing eating 3.5 servings of potato chips at one sitting?? Never mind paying 600% too much for them. And he's afraid of a vaccine with 1 in a million (if that) deadly complications when he is simultaneously trying to eat himself to death? How does that make any sense?

And yes, 200g is the standard big size package of potato chips in Canada. It is meant to serve a family.

From Investopedia:

"Hyperinflation is a term to describe rapid, excessive, and out-of-control general price increases in an economy. While inflation is a measure of the pace of rising prices for goods and services, hyperinflation is rapidly rising inflation, typically measuring more than 50% per month."

It is impossible to get out of this mess. Once the people are used to government spending at this level and for so long, they will never voluntarily give it up. We are stuck with it and the dollar's destiny is etched in stone. We are destined for economic collapse, just like many other countries. There is no way out.

Venezuela now sees merchants accepting tiny flakes of gold for milk and bread, if there is any milk and bread. Nobody wants to accept the worthless Bullova.

The widow-makers are the same price, but back when I used to eat chips once in a while, it was those low sodium ones I'd buy. I would dip them in a salsa/5% fat sour cream mix dip. Not bad, but I wouldn't dream of doing that now. I'm in a different phase of life now.

Did you see that riskytard said 200g is a "tiny bag?" LOL How much do you think that poor bastard eats at one sitting?? He must have to pawn his mobility scooter when he gets a craving.

I don't go back to that casino until Thursday, I will try to stop at that mini mart and see if that was the correct price. The more I think about it it just doesn't seem right. I had just lost a couple thousand dollars so maybe my mind wasn't on the chips until I got in the car. I went in there looking for beef jerky or potato salad, but they didn't have what I wanted.

Additional lying seems to be your personal solution to all your credibility problems. I never said your 'club packs' were 'rotten meat'. 'club packs' are meat cuts that have been passed over and are nearing expiration so they're repackaged and discounted. You found the cheapest meat you could with an internet search and claimed that you bought the meat yourself. How many at RGP do you think believe that? Just like you bought those potato chips.

No, I didn't say 'almost rotten'. I said: ''club packs' are meat cuts that have been passed over and are nearing expiration so they're repackaged and discounted.' I know now that you're limited by having derived your English reading skills from a cheap ass online investment forum but it seems that you aren't even trying to read plain English. In fact, it looks like you're trying to lie again. I think it's clear to the whole world that honesty is something you're having a personal struggle with.

~ Pardon me, you donkey. It's the same meat they package in the individual servings at a slightly higher price. Have you ever even been to Canada?

Yeah, sure they do. Because the employees at retail grocery outlets enjoy fashioning different types of packaging as a creative form of self-expression. What a dunce. 'Club packs' are meat cuts that have been passed over and are nearing expiration so they're repackaged and discounted.

Nearly rotten is materially different than "near expiration"? The reason you are splitting hairs is because you are embarrassed for being exposed as the moron you are.

I can't cure your stupidity. When the smaller packages have been there for a few days they are individually discounted. This happens every day. The senior citizens line up in the morning for the store to open to get them. They are discounted 30-50% (depending on the product), not the usual 10% club packs are discounted.

Yes, I am 100% sure. The address of the store I bought them at was on the label. You think I searched the internet to find a picture of a very reasonably priced package of clearly fresh cut steaks from a Vancouver store? LOLOL You are DEFINITELY the dumbest of the three stooges.

LOLOL...what a freakin' moron. If you had ever been to a Superstore, you would know that the quantity of Club Pack meat being sold FAR outstrips those in the much smaller individual packages, let alone those that are "nearly expired." What he is suggesting isn't even mathematically possible, but we all know he can't handle third grade math logic.

As I recall correctly, the video *was* proof that some mom and pop butcher shop somewhere was repacking meat to make it appear fresher than it was. That has NOTHING to do with the Real Canadian Superstore selling MASSIVE quantities of "Club Pack" packages of meat on a daily basis. It is not "repackaged". It is brought out to the shelves several times a day and outsells the relatively small supply of individual serving packages by a factor of at least 20:1. riskytard is just *really* dumb, that's all. In fact, I have made a ruling that he's even dumber than you.

Notice how this idiot will only cite the general definition of the prefix "hyper" rather than the precise definition of the well-understood economic term "hyperinflation?" He thinks y'all are too stupid to notice.

"The IASB, or International Accounting Standards Board, gives a precise definition of hyperinflation. They state that when the rate of inflation during three cumulative years nears one hundred percent total, or at least twenty-six percent each year compounded annually for three consecutive years, then hyperinflation has been reached. Other economists such as Cagan have declared hyperinflation to be when inflation is greater than fifty percent each month."

So on the one hand you have riskytard, the guy who can't handle third grade arithmetic problems, INSISTING the US is experiencing "hyperinflation." On the other hand you have financial experts and economists like those at the IASB, the NBER, Investopedia AND BillB saying it isn't. Who are you going to believe?

So, hyperinflation is when it's 'at least twenty-six percent each year compounded annually for three consecutive years' AND it's ALSO 'when inflation is greater than fifty percent each month'? The proponents of the latter, therefore, reject the definition of the former.

If a tribe of fools wants to fashion a new language they should try agreeing on one that's common to all.

And it hasn't yet occurred to you that they're simply guilty of sloppy English?

For another example, referring to the LEVEL of the CPI as 'inflation'? Paul tried to school you on that but it was like water off a duck's ass. You're an uneducated fool.
