Food shoppers still feeling the inflation sting

From Morning Report, 7:09 am on 18 October 2022

The annual inflation rate is expected to fall from a 32 year high today, - but there's no relief in sight for supermarket stress.

The latest Consumer Price Index numbers will be released on Tuesday morning.

Inflation is expected to drop from 7.3 percent to around 6.8 percent, but the overall rate for food price increases remains at a 13 year high.
