Dear Editor,
We all knew at the beginning why fuel, supermarket shopping, in fact most things went up.
Now that things have settled down and fuel has gone down, I honestly don’t undertand why supermarkets are still charging silly money for everyday products.
I suppose I would be more surprised if they actually put the prices down. When you have lived here a few years we always expect just before Easter they put the prices up, which most of the supermarkets did.
For me, I am a single person so I can decide what to do without, but if you have a family who want their snacks, and proper food on the table, then those are the people I feel sorry for. I think enough is enough and that the government should step in and sort the problem out.
I know one supermarket director, who said ‘well you don’t have to shop here’.
What sort of statement is that when people are suffering?
Come on supermarkets, put it right!

Yes I agree, Mercadona used to charge 2.50 euros for sal fumant to lower swimming pool pH,
now it is in a fancy new container for 9.0 euros.
I thought it must be stronger but see no indication on the label.
Lemonade too now costs double.
I am going to try Aldi.
