What's Not Going Up ??? Just the sign of the times. I've been in the flower business all my life. ( third generation) My grandfather and my father would both cringe at the cost of something simple like a carnation. It was not that long ago, when I could buy a carnation for 10 cents. The very lowest price now is 34.
Most of the blame goes to freight. In the 90's freight was about 8% of a flower cost. Its now into the 26% percent range. And that my friends is ****ing ridiculous.
Just look at your grocery bill. YIKES. I was "use to" blowing a Benji, easily for just things. NOw I find myself blowing three Benji's for just my wife and I...
Whats it cost for a movie these days ??? Been years since I've seen one..
Just gotta suck it up, take the good with the bad, and deal with it..
As for fishing lures, I got plenty on hand, and you actually have to go fishing to lose one, which, Unfortunately, I haven;t had the chance to do in a long time....
