Consumer Price Index Blog

Consumer Price Index: Consumer Price Index is a monthly calculation of prices on products either going up or going down!


Milk Western Family: $4.39 1 gallon.



Bread Western Family: $1.29 1lb 8 0z.





Hamburger Ground Bucks: $2.96 $1.24 cents a pound



Cheese Western Family: $5.59 1lb





Butter Western Family: $1.29 1lb





Eggs Western Family: $2.29 24 0z.




Noodles Western Family $1.69 1lb







Cereal Qauker: $4.99 1lb 5oz





Apples Red Delicious: 8.7cents






Ham Bucks: $9.92 99 cents per lb

Milk will go up probably by may along with the apples and bread because of the inclining gas prices!

I found that the wheat prices are going up because of the growing need for the product in overseas contries. Plus the increase in gas has rose so fast that they have to up the price of bread for gas money!
