ALDI & others - price increases​

Hi, new member here. I would like to start by saying that I,m outspoken and not afraid to say what is on my mind.
I found that the visits to Aldi that were costing me an average of $35 now turn out to be $55.
As I record the prices of each and every item since February 2022 I find the price increases extortionate.
Butter was $4.99 now $6.49 28.1% inc
Cream $3.39 now $4.19 23.6%
and I could go on and bore you.

All up the price increases on utilities have gone up by $450 a month. excluding food.
The pension is due for review on 20/3/2023 I just hope for their sake it is greater than $450.00 but I doubt it.
