Your brown bag lunch just got more expensive. Which sandwiches to avoid...

If you save money by making your own sandwiches for lunch, you’ll be saving less now on most of them:

• Ham and cheese. Ham is up 4% from last year and cheese is up 7%.

• BLT. Bacon is up 11%, and lettuce and tomato are both on the rise.

• Turkey and chicken deli meat – both up slightly.

Here’s some good news if you like good old PB&J. Peanut butter prices are down 4%, canned fruit prices are dropping – and that includes jelly and bread is down slightly from last year.
