This is in response to spending for Shabbos
What will happen with grocery cost with Pesach
Specifically matza
Or is part of Hashem pays it back just closing our eyes and not think about the cost

B”H - we can afford it, but I don’t splurge on things
Matzah is not a splurge it’s a necessity

If you have an idea how much shmurah matza will be this yr please post
Is it going to be $60/lb

Depending on which circles you are in you may have to ask a rav but a few years ago I stopped buying matzah made in the US and only eat hand machine by the sedorim because the cost of US made hand matzah is just too much.

For the sedorim I look for hand matzah with an Israeli Hechser that I trust. We eat Guelah machine matza (Edah Hachreidus hechser) the rest of Pesach.

I checked on a wholesale matzah site. I don’t think prices will be anywhere near that. Probably $20/lb. and fewer sales at $15/lb.

We only eat Hand Made Matzah
Again- We can afford it
But is emunah not to think twice about it, just pay with our eyes closed, like we usually do

Yes! Because Hashem repays all Shabbos and Yom Tov. הוצאות.
אמר רבי יוחנן משום רבי אליעזר ברבי שמעון: אמר להם הקדוש ברוך הוא לישראל: בני, לוו עלי וקדשו קדושת היום, והאמינו בי ואני פורע… כל מזונותיו של אדם קצובים לו מראש השנה ועד יום הכפורים, חוץ מהוצאת שבתות והוצאת יום טוב, והוצאת בניו לתלמוד תורה. שאם פחת – פוחתין לו, ואם הוסיף – מוסיפין לו.

Yes, Hashem takes care of your matzah expense.
Bh you can afford it.
The Parnassah we have is exactly for this.

So much this. Ask your rav if you cant afford it. Also there are many options if you are lucky enough to live in a bigger city, so if you can, buy a lower end shmura matza.

We asked our rav who knows our financial situation and he said to buy machine shmura for the last 6 days and the cheapest hand shmura for the first 2 days.

Thank you for quoting. Realize that it also says V'Hotzoas Bonov Ltalmud Torah. Maybe we should make a spinoff for all the people going on birth control because tuition is too expensive.

So sad.
