This report, from the Financial Times, no less, is interesting. It seems to give the lie to the much-touted claim from all EU governments that the rate of inflation is much lower.

(It'd also be good to see the figures for petrol/gasoline prices, and household energy bills!)

From shopping experience here locally - in Belgium - the real prices have gone up way more than the numbers indicate above...

The price of some items really astounds me. The one that has me boggled currently is BLEACH. Is it the same in other areas, I wonder? Always a cheap item to purchase in the past ( .99 - $3 ) is now upwards of 7.99. I mean that's just crazy for something that is so simple to produce. And apple juice, $18+ a gallon? What the heck. And when did crap food, like potato chips and French fries, etc.. go so richter? It really is a mad, mad world we see today.
