Personal Inflation Rate  

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices paid by consumers for a fixed market basket of goods and services.

The CPI is a national "average" of prices and may not report the same inflation that you or your family experience.

The CPI divides consumer expenditures into seven major groups of goods and services. You can estimate your personal inflation rate using the table below.
