Re: prices going up with a bang
Even fish and chips are going up.
Floods push up price of fish and chips | This is Money
Still, at least the price of rice should be coming down.

Re: prices going up with a bang
I am reluctant to suggest it, but do you ever get the idea that things like the flood are just convenient excuses for business to increase profits without putting any effort into improving their products or services? Or am I just a little too suspicious?

Re: prices going up with a bang
Next thing you know will be the price of gravy on yer chips has gone up because the flour to thicken the gravy has gone up due to the recent floods...this has caused the flour producing farmers to divert the crops to China because of the recent surge in the demand in bio-fuels

Probably they use snorkels to reach the grass; then take huge mouthfuls, rise to the surface, and chew their cud while swimming on their backs.
