Hi y’all —
Freeman said I have to be careful even when shopping for legit items because prices in certain categories are spiking. Meat is one of them — data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis shows that beef and veal prices have increased by 20% since February. Poultry and pork are up over 8% each.
THE BOTTOM LINE
(but please don't tell me you scrolled past all of my hard work)
Shopping is indeed changing, with people leaning more toward mindful purchases that will improve their lockdown lives.

News has revealed the conservatorship is actually costing Spears a LOT. Recently obtained financial documents show the singer had to spend $1.2 million on attorneys and advisors last year. She also got an allowance to spend at stores like Anthropologie, but the situation in general sounds toxic. #FreeBritney

One last thing about investments — they don’t have to involve splurging on something silly. Senior editor Brad Tuttle said his favorite investment this summer was a family trip to Cape Cod. For art director Lixia Guo, it was the time she invested into growing shishito peppers in her garden. Those both sound like pretty good deals to me.
