Hix...this morning i went to market to buy food as usual..and i was shock when prices are increased so fast. Hmm...i still need food for eating then i had to buy it Right now i just know gas, electricity and petrol's prices are increased with a big amount, and i know some days later the others goods/services' prices are increased also. Hmmm, i need it for living then i still have to buy/pay it...but why the prices are increased so fast like that and it rarely reduces? It is really hard to live with a high inflation...

Ryan, same like you i don't really like inflation. It makes the price of the same goods going much higher within a short period of time. Because of this matter, now i am always checking and hunting for the cheaper price of the same product, before i buy. I try to make sure that i don't spend much on each item. If i am able to buy the same product at a cheaper price when buy in bulk, then i will buy it. At least, i don't have to buy that same product for a few months.

Inflation seems to have hit everywhere. I try to buy locally grown produce. It's generally cheaper and helps to save money. It's good if it's possible for you to do. There are a lot of farms all over New England and many not far from me. If I could grow anything I'd try making a garden. But when I plant anything it's doomed to wither and die. There are many other things that have gone up in price and you just have to pay for it or go without if you can. It's terrible. I blame government. But then, I blame the government for almost everything!

I do blame the government for almost everything in here also. It seems that they ?e powerless with many problems of this country. They promise do this do that..but inflation is still high... I eat vegetable 1 meal a day (it is my habit from Korea because vegetable in Korea is much more expensive than meat) but meat, fish, eggs...i have to buy. Electricity, gas, petrol i have to buy because i can't stop using it... Hope people won't suffer a high inflation longer more.

here in USA, they are getting worse with food so fast because 60 percent of our country is having a terrible drought. everyone in the world seems to be having inflation but its made even worse when crops suffer no water and animals suffer for crop food. so yes groceries are even higher here now.

It looks like inflation is happening everywhere. Also here. Bought high-priced, out of necessity. The responsibility of whom?

Even in my country, we have sky high prices, almost all prices commodity here are going up. The cost of living is so high that majority of people are tighening their belts just to make both ends meet. Also, money is hard to find nowadays but like must move on. We need to deal with it. Thanks

yes, we have to face to it..but the government should do something... In here many factories, companies are closed because they can't sell their products while people are tighening their belts to spend money..and it is not good for an economy of a country.

I know what you mean. Here too everything has gone up. Our bills especially have now doubled and I'm a bit worries about how we are going to afford it all the time. Thanks to our PM bringing in a carbon tax now we are suffering for it

Yes, it is really annoying to see the prices going up all the time and you are still earning the same... The costs of your expenses are always going up while the money you have to pay for them remains the same. It really makes me feel uncomfortable and insecure...

Yes, it is very irritating to hear prices going up so fast and never reducing. In here all people have to do save when buying something and me too. I have to manage money tightly and consider a lots before buying something...hix, i feel insecure also because earning money is not easy while prices are too high.

It really happens drastically nowadays. All the stuff seems to mark up but if you're an employee,your salary stays the same or only increases after a year.
