Current life says that's not the case. Some of that may be supply chain issues, and they say inflation is at 5% or so, but most things have had at least a 20% price increase this year.
Edit: to poster below, it varies, very noticeable if you are traveling. For your cost of living, it's noticeable over the month if you are living paycheck to paycheck. My point is don't just "print away", inflation is a tax on the poor.
Car rental 87.7% (y/y change)
Used cars 45.2%
Gas 45.1%
Laundry machines 29.4%
Airfare 24.6%
Moving 17.3%
Hotels 16.9%
Furniture 8.6%
Bacon 8.4%
TVs 7.6%
Fruit 7.3%
Shoes 6.5%
Fresh fish 6.4%
New cars 5.3%
Milk 5.6%
Rent (OER) 2.3%
- dragonwriter 5y ago> most things have had at least a 20% price increase Most things have not had anywhere close to that. The things that have draw more attention, though.
- bushbaba 5y agoCar rentals, used cars, hotels, airfare will all trend down in price over time.
- icedchai 5y agoEven if that is true, it doesn't help the average person who doesn't travel much. Their day-to-day expenses are still going up faster than wages.
