Sticker Shock

Gas prices aren’t the only ones going up...

Brace yourself – and your wallet. Gas prices aren’t the only ones on the rise. Here are some more potential sticker shockers we’ll see this summer:

• Airfares: They’re already up 22%.
• Chocolate: Expect a price increase in about 8 weeks.
• Coffee: It’s already jumped 27% since January.
• Fast food: Higher beef costs will boost the price of burgers.

If you need new tires – get them soon. Prices are rising there too because the natural rubber prices have jumped more than 75 percent in the past few months.
