Have you gone to the grocery store recently and noticed that an item you regularly purchase is more expensive than normal?  According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, inflation happens when the price of goods and services increases over time.  In this session, we will take a deeper dive into what inflation is and how it affects our buying power, how we can adjust our budget with increasing prices, and provide resources to better understand the effects of inflation in your everyday lives!  A free webinar from the University of Illinois Extension.
