Can confirm.
Our neighbours are all buying water in now.
Feed is low as a result.
This will be reflected in meat prices at the shops soon.

Yeah I’m expecting to see meat and dairy prices go up soon. I was also talking to one of the honey producers at the market on Sunday. They now have very limited supplies of honey to sell because there isn’t much for the bees to feed on, and they don’t feed them sugar, so need to leave the honey in the hives.
Walked through the local IGA the other day and one dozen free range eggs for nearly $10.....
I’ve noticed less eggs at the farmer’s market too and I think some of them have put up their prices. Still less than $10 for the last lot I bought though.
yup I get the eggs from the kangaroo island folks
holy shit how much is the weekly pay for you guys over there now? i mean, cigarettes $50, 12 eggs $10, what next? australian dollar is teetering on vertical if you ask me
fortunately, the $10 eggs is an extreme example... but the $50 darts is accurate. Thank fuck I don't smoke anymore... would be the most retarded habit here lol
i stopped anyway permanently 2 years ago, but honestly though it's bad stuff it was nothing compared to the legal food additives that have actually made me very sick
I’ve never smoked so avoid that cost too and I think I usually pay maybe around $8 for eggs but that is for the larger size eggs.
i remember they were $3 when i lived there last in 2012
i pay less than this for eggs here in europe, typical in balkans was about 0.15 euro per egg, here it's more like 25-30 cents
but our taxes are also very high in other areas here, the VAT is higher than GST, for example
hell, i remember back circa 2007 reading that the effective tax rate there was like second highest in the world (worst was denmark or something) at 72%, i bet it's more like 90% now, it's completely nuts how much money goes to the government
literally 90% enslaved you are over there, here maybe 60%, and they have made us poor in europe by strangling industry
