I totally don’t believe it. The cost of gas is back up, groceries aren’t any less expensive, and my 3 luxury items are still exactly the same price: books, yarn and movies.
In fact, jewelry (which I haven’t bought in ages), fountain pens and makeup are just as expensive, if not MORE SO!!!
Where are those people getting their numbers from? Probably the people that still shop for recreation!
