What'd you buy last week when you went to the grocery store?
Put them all together and you can see how inflation is affecting just those things that you've picked and that you're actually buying, how that number compares to the overall rate and how it's changed over time.
What was it a year ago?
What is it this month?
And next month you can come back and see
what the latest numbers are and get the freshest data.
But let's say, you know, last month inflation was over 9%.
Next month, let's say it gets down to 8.8, 8.6.
That'll be good news.
And the headline will be inflation is slowing down.
That doesn't mean that everything's suddenly less expensive.
It just means that prices are growing at a slower clip.
So prices are still hot.
And what this tool will let you do is cut through that and see exactly
What's being affected by inflation and understand that just because inflation is slowing down, it doesn't mean that you don't need to keep watch on what you're spending and what's being affected by rising prices.
Yeah, well, speaking of families, you know, I have a kid myself.
I have another on the way.
I'm extremely busy.
I don't know if I'll be able to come back to this every month, but we do offer a way to actually get an email that will alert you when the new numbers come out.
Here's the latest on inflation, and here's the latest on the items that you've selected that you want to keep tabs on.
