Default Something doesn't add up

You know when gas was $4.00 a gallon and diesel was close to $5.00, they said the price of food went up because of the shipping costs. Well...gas is below $2.00 a gallon and diesel is below $3.00 but I haven't seen the price of food go down any, have you?

Nope, I haven't either. Makes you wonder if the saying: "everything that goes up has to come down", is true.

We were talking about this at work the other day. I've seen alot of stuff continue to go up at the grocery store as gas prices have gone down. They're making money right now, in spite of the doom and gloom reports on TV.
