Cost of Living - Shrinkflation is speeding up at an alarming rate

As I said, just because you don't purchase every item doesn't mean it's all made up...
they aren't even common items people think of when they think of inflation.
Anyway, if you think prices are going up 5% a week what exactly are you buying..
probably the same as most people in a weekly shop.

which ain't going to be gluten free bread when only 10% of the population has gluten problems
 
probably the same as most people in a weekly shop.
5% weekly inflation would mean an item costing £1 on day one would be over £12 a year later. Grocery inflation has actually been slightly negative and just edged back to 2% yearly recently...
 
My vinyl records are bought mainly second hand and were released in 1971 give ot take a few years. Inflation is irrelevant in that respect. I do buy an occasional new one but would argue that it is something you only buy as a luxury, if you have an interest and have the rest of the equipment already. Again inflation is irrelevant.
