Prices are rising

in #life8 years ago (edited)

Hi steemit

With the recent rising price of oil i think we will soon see the rise of all daily items, so i went shopping to buy before they rise.

I think it's good to buy things that can be stored for long period so we won't be affected by the rise in price at least for short term

So here are some things i bought

Wine

Canned fish

Dog food

Also some rice, flour, tissues, and cooking oil

what do you think will happen as a result of the rise in oil price?

what are you planning to do?

@djohan,
Yeah when oil price rise, all the consumer items of my country also rising! But I believe that's not a very fair thing! Coz, when price drops in most cases those prices will not drop as it does!

Cheers~

thank you theguruasia, yes when prices rise they tell us because the oil price is up so we need to raise the items price, but oil was down the last few years and the consumer items stays the same

Hi @djohan
That is a good idea.
Purchase and store stock of food and beverages in the current situation. I am interested in the drink you buy, it seems very fancy and delicious.

thank you amuchtar, yes i think food and beverage price never go down, so always good to store a lot if possible.

I would say it is becuase of a weakness in the dollar, but the dollar is not that weak at the moment. Then I remembered it’s summer time and they always raise oil prices in the summer so that gas prices are higher so they make more money. I don’t see extension of high oil prices “unless” the dollar weakens which then you have hyperinflation which the only two things you can think of our cryptos and metals to save your purchasing power.

thank you floridanow, the dollar is the best fiat money i think. Maybe the trade war going on might escalate the oil price?

You make a wise decision to buy some daily items because i also agree that after rise in Oil price we might see rise in daily items too, so it's right time to buy some routine items, thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Stay blessed

thank you adnanrabbani, yes oil will effect the price of everything as it is used for delivery and manufacturing

Good idea & future plan is great. @djohan.
Have a nice day.

thank you goldcoin

@djohan, I think you got terrific decision before rise some good's price. I also will buy can be stored long period's items.

thank you madushanka , yes oil will influence the price of everything as everything needs to be delivered to the supermarket and shops

It's too many wine bottles , this stock for how many days lol

thank you spiritualpower, maybe 30 days, lol

Purchasing necessary things before price hike is always good idea .

thank you pardeepkumar, yes i never see price of daily items going down, and with the rise of oil, everything will rise

You are right, everything will rise in price. We have the same thing in our country, even though the government promises to monitor the price increase, but it does not work. You are doing everything right.

thank you magnata, i don't believe promises and we are told that inflation number is low like 2 % or 5 %, but when you calculate the food price it is more than that everywhere in the world

Yes it's better to complete your inventory before the rise of price. Have a nice time. @djohan

thank you kamchore, yes i hate when the food price goes up and we are told that inflation is 2%
