Burbs of Chicago checking in...inflation status

Just thought I'd report the cost of train tickets increasing by a large margin, milk a little, eggs and OJ a lot, cottage cheese a little.

That's it, I'll be back in a week with new price rise reports.

do you know the train that was depicted in the movie Ocean's Eleven ?

they have a scene where Matt Damon pickpockets a guy on the train, maybe the L train. then George Clooney picks the pocket of the Matt Damon character and they meet at "Emmitt's Pub".

just wondering if what was shown in the movie is accurate to the city.

didn't mean to take the thread totally off on a tangent. 8)

Ha, I know of the scene but will have to re watch it. The train tickets that I know went up in price are the Metra's. Weekend passes went from $5 to $7. One ways also went up a little I believe. I'm more worried about the food prices though because I rarely even hop on the Metra...but I do eat...lots.
