What I have noticed this week is the huge difference in cost between economy and premium. If you are wondering what is meant by economy and premium. Economy would be the budget or value produce we can buy. The economy price would be the organic, free range high value food. I add both prices in as a comparison but also as I do garden organically but do not have organic certification.
I have not spent any money this week either so I don't need to put up the report.
