I was buying a piece of tenderloin in Costco once a week. In a short time the average price went from about $150 to $200. I could still afford it but something in me cringe so I stopped buying it. That is in Canada

Ground beef prices at Costco went up a boat load as well. Costco only sells things at most a 2% markup so Costco prices are a pretty good metric for inflation.

I love the fact that I can still get 2 dozen eggs for $6 at Costco, meanwhile it's like at least $5 a dozen anywhere else in NYC.
