SUMMARY: A survey indicates that prices for holiday staples such as hamburger meat, baked beans, and potato salad are at a record high this year. Shoppers at a Jackson grocery store noted price increases of about 30% from last year. The cost of a typical July 4th meal has risen by 5%, according to the American Farm Bureau, with current costs reaching around $71 for ten people, up from just under $68 last year. Consumers are adapting by prioritizing necessities over wants, and the rising costs are particularly challenging for those on a budget.
