Sad to say, it's the same around here, too. My friend was talking about how she's expected to get anywhere between 15k-20k in a settlement from a car accident she was in a little over a year ago. That's a lot for someone like her, not used to seeing a lot of money, but it will go fast and is a drop in the bucket in today's cost of living. My anual parmaont plus subscription is going up, and so much more. It's amazing how much changes year after year.

@HaruLoid That's not anything new. Some prices will change anually, while others can change monthly or daily depending on what it is. In the U.S. the cost of fuel is based on the cost of oil.

@kaylachan It's quite new to us here. Change of cost usually happens annually. When the war started between Russia and Ukraine, it was only then that we get change of cost either monthly or daily.

It isn't going away either. The one thing people tend to miss about inflation is that it has already happened, meaning, the prices likely won't go down. All we can hope for is that when things slow down, our wages can eventually catch up.

Seems prices are surging everywhere, unfortunately.
