Yeah, same here re. ringing true. Only one little person though.
I know we’re very privileged to have our own small space, to be able to share one vehicle, and to be financially equipped to raise our kid as we want (hockey, mountain biking, other opportunities) but in the past few years, even with raises, we’ve absolutely noticed the constant tightening.
Not the we ever ate at restaurants all that much but we’ve still cut that back a lot relatively. I heard a stat, again on the radio, that 50% of Vancouver restaurants are losing money and that’s very believable when you look at food costs/labour costs/rent costs going up and a reported drop in patrons.
