Creeping prices, an effect of the raise in minimum wage in the future?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) October 8th, 2016

Around here, tacos, hotdogs, and corn dogs use to be dirt cheap at major franchises, but lately the price has creeped up so they are no longer the dirt cheap bargains they were. Is that an effect of the minimum wage being raised to $10.00 Jan 1st? If it is, what will creep up next, not by much were someone will notice like a glaring bon fire but like a slow raising flood, shoes, groceries, services, apparel?
