How to Combat Inflation as a Prepper
A few weeks ago, I was talking about rising egg prices and rising gold prices as being a concern.

Are Rising Gold Prices a Sign of Worse to Come?

Are Rising Egg Prices a Sign of Worse to Come?
I haven’t had to purchase eggs in years, at least until this past December. I was shocked to see that the organic / cage free eggs were nine dollars for a dozen at our local grocery store. The cheaper eggs were something like four or five dollars a dozen, but even that felt a tad…
