  1. Certainly always feels like considerably more. Our family budget for food has increased dramatically since 2020 and has definitely increased further this year whilst doing our best to be more mindful and efficient with our purchases. I really feel for households on median/low incomes.

    The perpetual cycle of having less in our pockets and at the same time seeing decreases in the returns we get in exchange for our money is extremely disheartening. It never feels like we can pull ahead.

  2. Do love the fact the headline says above target…I mean there’s going to be fluctuations but it is hovering around the 2% target…as long as the long term average is 2% then it’s good
