A pound of dried beans cost 29 cents more this August than it did in 2019, while an hour of average pay went up 35 percent. Beans still aren't the steadiest thing on my list. One plain staple held its price better, and I saved it for last. Not financial advice, not legal advice. Just what I'd tell my own kids. The prices come from the Bureau of Labor Statistics average price and price index tables, the shelf lives from Kansas State University's extension service, and the pantry guidance from Ready.gov.
