But bought 2 items yesterday that have their prices raised and we are not even into Jan 2023.
One is a wholemeal bread loaf from Fourleaves. Price has risen by 6.5% from $3.10 to $3.30.
Another was 2 bottles of Dasini 1.5L water that also see a 6.6% rise from $1.50 to $1.60.
If this 6% rise next year is the norm, one will be paying $600 more for every $10K of his annual expenditure.
So someone with annual expenses of $30K will be paying $1800 more!
