[quote=Anonymous]How are you getting less OP? It seems like you are paying more for the same services? We are honestly not spending that much more, we but did do things like switch to Aldi and Trader Joe’s and our grocery bills went way down. Some services are higher but it’s such a small percentage of our annual income that it’s not really affecting us because we are also benefiting from decent wage growth. While greedflation clearly exists and is terrible, I see the increase in services are a positive overall, as long as wage growth stay above inflation. Also I when I look back at some of the larger jumps in service costs, I’ve noted that they did remain flat with little to know increases for several years, so what appears to be a sudden 20% increase really covers multiple years of no increases.
