Too bad the gas prices don't stay low.

• @Laura14.  The Hampton Inn is hardly a bastion of wealth and elegance.  It's just a step or two above a Motel 6.  I think your imagination is working overtime.

@SilleeMee.  I fill up on a quarterly basis.  Not a significant expense.

@ThinkingOutLoud - it discusses Instacart and the way they charge shoppers based on algorithms even though they shop online from the same store with the same grocery list.

I read about Instacart and their algorithm. I called twice to register a complaint. Both times the reps played dumb, one insisting I was wrong.

I am going to talk to Costco when the holidays are over, @JeanLouiseFinch.

Gas is the least of my expenses at this phase of my life.

@GingerHead Nope. I was told no rooms available and she was offered the exact room I was told they didn't have. 

And as much as I would love to be like her, I don't think that highly of myself. Truly just a wording.

Gas prices are NOT lower where I live.

I learned on this forum a while back that some posters are likely compensated when readers click on sites that they recommend. If  an OP wants  to share info, great; if they want to  be obtuse and direct me to a specific site, no way am I going there unless I am familiar with the site and/or it is a well known resource.

The article was on the Consumer Reports site, @Q-Checker, although it may be behind a paywall.

Food and gas prices don't worry me much.  It's the cost insurances that keep going up.  Health insurance, medicare, house, car.  Those are eating up my annuity.  We were just informed that our property taxes are increasing by 20%.

Were you with your mom at the time, @Laura14? Did you confront them?
