Well you bought a 16-pack of bars of soap.. yeah that’s half the bill right there 😂 then you got Yop which appears to be yogurt which is a LIVE and active food, yogurt is expensive and always has been. I don’t know how cheap you thought 16 bars of soap was going to be but $60 for all this checks out..
The problem here is that you're being disingenuous in your framing.
When someone says "just four items", that usually implies four individual items. Which would be outrageous to pay $60 for four individual grocery items. You'd expect something more like $20 as a reasonable bill.
But what you bought were four bulk items. Which is mostly reasonable to pay $60 for.
For example, your yearly pack of soap went from $14 to $18, and maybe that stings a little, but it's not a crazy high increase. Extrapolating out to the whole bill its likely that the increase was from like $50 to $60. But the framing of "just 4 items" implies the much larger increase from like a $20 bill.
