A plurality of Americans (32.8%) believe that today’s inflation rate of 8.3% has impacted their lives at the grocery checkout aisle more than anywhere else.
According to a nationwide survey published by Sophisticated Investor on May 11th, 2022, nearly one-third of Americans are most impacted by the rising cost of groceries, whereas 30.9% believe that gasoline prices have carried a higher toll on their lives.
The consumer price index (CPI), a statistical tool for measuring the change in prices of consumer goods, is currently at its highest rate in over 40 years. Given the staggering decline of the dollar’s purchasing power, it is of critical importance that survey data examine exactly how inflation is changing the lives of ordinary Americans.

p
women buy more expensive crap and more of it, and don’t want to change their buying habits
not surprising at all
And they will still vote Dem. Overwhelmingly.
especially if they are single, yep
As a man, I love it when I walk into a grocery store and they give everything to me for free.
So the wacky increased prices have no effect on me at all. /s
In all seriousness:
Bidenflation is hurting All of us.
Men at the gas pump. Women at the food stores. Go figure.
But James Carville said that Americans just don’t know how great the economy is..
(But James Carville said that Americans just don’t know how great the economy is.)
True.
I love the 58 percent increase in the canned beans I was buying.
Now, instead of having to carry 20 cans for $10 and change, my load is lighter with only 13 cans to carry now. (roughly)
James Carville is an economic genius I tell ya!
The left is retarded.
I’d LOL but it’s too accurate
I went to 7-11 yesterday and bought a buttered bagel and a large coffee. It cost $5.10. That means that with ten dollars you couldn’t buy two. I’m done buying breakfast on the fly. Saw diesel for $6.99 here on Long Island.
It’s transitory!!
That seems like a much smaller percentage. I’d predict 88 percent really feel the grocery inflation.
Here in LA a egg Mcmuffin is $4.85 a single bag of chips $1.85 gas $5.50 to $6.80 some of Biden’s unity going on huh Moe.
