One of the main problems that all Spaniards face, without exception, is the notable problem increase in basket price lately, especially in the last few years.
Go to the supermarket and refuel a car for less than 100 euros It is almost a utopia, and each time the purchase takes a greater percentage of our income, which must face general increases in all sectors.
Therefore, if we look back and look at the price of things not so long ago, the feeling is truly discouraging. This week, a tweeter shared an announcement of a supermarket from 2007 and prices are significantly lower than 18 years later.
“Look what I just discovered about 2007. Some say we live better now,” said the tweeter, who shared a photo of a full-page advertisement from the Lidl supermarket, in which a can of cooked shrimp costs 3.99 euros, a liter of olive oil 2.79 euros or a dozen eggs for 0.89 euros.
The other products in the brochure are a packet of ground coffee for 0.85 euros. Even specific products, such as a glass of chocolate with cream, appeared for only 0.17 euros.
The responses show some consensus on how things have changed: “When my mother He told me that €20 was enough for everything.“, writes one of them. “Pack of coffee for €0.85 in 2007, on Saturday I paid €4.47 for a pack of coffee,” says another Internet user.
“0.89 for tuna whereas it is now 3 euros”said another. “When did eggs go from €0.89 to €3, or even €4 in certain supermarkets? The increase seems crazy to me,” says another.
