RTE news : Watch: What's going on with food prices?

Please move/delete etc if already posted.
Personally the CCPC response is infuriating! Tesco charging €8 for Deodorant (~€4.50 clubcard price) is absolutely ridiculous! (Not so long ago could get main brand Deo for 2.50 on clubcard)
Sirloin steak has gone through the roof too, and while I'm lucky to afford these increases out of principle personally I'm boycotting Tesco. (Heaven to think what the increases on higher end cuts are)
Can't speak for Dunnes, but noticed the German multiples increasing prices on meat products too. However they are cheaper for main brand Deodorants.
While I can decide to shop for cheaper alternatives, I really feel for those in our society on the breadline.
IMHO the CCPC is a joke, there are huge increases across everyone's daily purchases.
(Rant off)

Watch: What's going on with food prices?
An investigation by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) into the grocery retailer sector found there is no evidence indicating any issues regarding competition among retailers in terms of food prices.
