Every item you buy is up 100%? Sure.

Tuna fish. In 2007 it was $0.50 . In 2015, it is $0.95.

Car Battery. In 2007 it was ~ $45.00. In 2015 it is $85.00.

Milk. In 207 it was $2.00/gallon. In 2015 it is $4.00/gallon.

McDonalds cheese burger. In 2007 it was $0.55. Now it is $1.25.

Gasoline was $1.65 in 2007, went up to $3.85, and is now back down to $2.35, even though the price of oil has dropped greatly since 2007.

Used tires were $20.00 in 2007. They are $40.00 now.

Hershey candy. Was a 10 pack in 2007 for $1.00. Is now a 5 pack for that same $1.00.

If you aren't seeing the inflation, you are probably not doing much of your own shopping.

You pay $4 for milk?

I saw gas much higher than $1.65 in 2007.

Your prices are suspect.
