When did you first notice inflation?

[Anonymous]

in September 2020, i noticed Halloween candy was $4.50, when i remember it being $2.50 2yrs before

I always say…. you ever notice how when inflation goes down, they never seem to go back to the old prices?😂

Like there might be some reduction, but I mean like…. if something was $1.00 and it flew up to $2.00…. even if the inflation rate dropped back down to around its original rate…they’ll drop the price to $1.50, or AT LEAST $1.10. You’ll never see it for $1.00 again, lmao

i never even see it go back down to 1.50. all i see is it going up and never back down

[WhiteSteve]

Exactly. Always remember that that’s the corporations causing that, not politicians, from either side of the aisle. These business owners will always jerk us for every last red cent they can get away with

A few weeks after Biden was in office gas prices started to rise. I knew that soon everything else will go up too.

I don't remember. Prices jump a lot that makes me feel like I'm being gaslighted.

When eggs skyrocketed in price.

And now in the US it's mostly over.

i would hope so, with things costing 400% more than they did only 5yrs ago

Name one thing that is 5x as much as it was in 2018.

spray paint. amongst others. even when you look at bleach. these days, theyre selling them in much smaller bottles for higher prices, and definitely not by 3% as the shils, and prestitutes claim

[Asker]

even the shils and prestitutes are saying "inflation is down" to try to con people into believing that things are getting better. you still paying at least 20% more for most things than 5yrs ago, everything from pants, food, flights, taxi, tools, renovations, auto repair, rent (in many cases 40%+), and haircuts. the list goes on. even when it comes to travel. goverments are so desprate for money, theyre starting to charge tolls. ny, for example is starting to charge tolls for entering downtown. $20. so you went from $0 to $20.

[slatyb]

I don't have historical price information for spray paint but that's a very small part of most people's expenditures. Food, housing, and energy dominate.

[Asker]

housing has doubled for many people in the past 5yrs
