Wholesalers are pretty scarce too, there’s no wireless heat detectors in Aberdeen at the moment, roughly a 10 day wait time on them and what they do have, most have stopped selling to Joe public and keeping them for trade only I’m afraid. The internet is a lot more expensive than what I’ve been paying for them, but it may have to be a last resort if the customer is willing to cough up, but most are just happy to wait.

Orraloon Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Inflation reaches almost 5%. It's now at its highest rate for about 30 years. Anybody under 40 probably won't remember inflation ever being above 5%. If this lasts for any length of time, or gets even higher, it's going to be a major shock to the system. Younger generations will really struggle to cope. When I tell younger folk that I can remember inflation being above 20% they just laugh at me and think I'm taking the pish. But mostly they have very little interest in inflation. I think they might start to be interested very soon? https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/inflationandpriceindices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have gone from $1500 to $ 15-20k per container in a very short period of time. Mainly caused by an increase in demand for goods as covid diminishes. You would hope these costs will reduce over time, its fookin outrageous and affects absolutely everything we buy. House prices are going through the roof at the moment and 3 interest rate rises are expected this year. There will be a lot of pain if things don’t settle down. Edited January 19, 2022 by TDYER63 .

Heard someone on the radio this morning explaining how global factors are affecting UK inflation, like Putin reducing European gas supplies and Chinese microchip production dropping due to Covid.

aaid Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 James Cook to replace Sarah Smith as BBC's Scotland Editor.
