extra money in the pocket is always nice but wish our government went a little further- maybe tackle why prices are so high?

Agreed. I'm not going to say no to the money, but if gouging isn't dealt with then a cash injection to grocery shoppers is going to turn into a reward for those doing the gouging. Not that I have any problem with direct cash payments, but this feels like half a solution.
