simply isn't all that high, and it seems heavily weighted to things most people don't buy regularly. Like cars.

I am seeing a certain amount of price increases in food, especially in restaurants, but given how very less often I go out to eat these days, it's not a burden on my budget. Cooking at home, even with slightly more expensive groceries, is incredibly economical.
