BALTIMORE — Most Americans didn’t get a nearly 8 percent raise in the last year, but that’s how much more consumers are paying for everyday items with inflation.⁠
⁠
The consumer price index, which measures the change in prices paid by consumers for goods and services, hit a 40-year high. Year-over-year, consumer prices increased 7.9 percent in February, the fastest rate since 1982.⁠
⁠
Food at home is up 8.6 percent. Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs are 13 percent higher than February of last year. Energy costs are up 25.6 percent and clothing is 6.6 percent more costly.⁠
