What does inflation mean to you?

I understood the aim of the discussion but I thought that inflation had many forms for many people and blowing up balloons came into my mind straight away lol I remember when government decided to link inlation in thier initatives to raise or lower the interest rates to counteract inflation and did get it wrong sometimes. It has now been kept steady for a while but who knows what may happen next with the world banks in turmoil.

You are probably trying to be funny about this discussion. Anyway, thanks for the cheer. We are discussing about economic inflation and not balloons.

Yes, good and kudos for technogy that is helping us to counter inflation. Each of us will have found ways to beat or arrest inflation in our own life.

I don't know, actually I think I use less of the 'modern' technologies and convert back more and more to doing things the way our forefathers did - growing a good share of our own food, hand making things rather than buying them, walking or riding bike whenever possible rather than driving, even used fireplace for heat more this past winter rather than fuel oil.
