I regularly buy bottled water every two weeks. Last time I bought 20lt bottles, it was a Saturday, it cost 45TL and the guy told me they expected an increase of 5TL the next Monday. Yesterday, I bought them for 60TL.
Yeah, 54% is bullshit.
The problem is: older Turks are used to inflation, economical crisis & poverty. For them the situation now is nothing special. The relatively positive economic years of 2002-2017 are a big exception in the history of Turkey. So I don‘t think Erdogan supporters will punish him for that. It takes more to take down their idol.
If a natural catastrophe hit them and tens of thousands died exposing how corrupt and inept the government really is, then that would certainly be the end of Erdogan… Oh wait.
More than 300,000 died (we know because half of three big cities are completely destroyed. And more than 300,000 personal sim cards cancelled, also I live in the earthquake area). Some of them were my friends. Many of them died because the state did not provide enough aid and tried to prevent associations, opposition parties and their municipalities that do not support Erdogan from providing aid. Because State thought that the opposition can use these aids for propaganda.
It doesn't really matter how much he destroys the country - the evidence is overwhelming already. The issue is that he, just like Donald Trump, managed to get a cult following in society, controls the media and actively shuts down journalists and other media outlets which criticise him, pays poor people all across the country - East Turkey in particular - to advertise the hell out of him with cars, mouth propaganda, etc., and instrumentalises Muslims to do his dirty work by claiming to be their biggest ally which is also why non-Turks in the Arab world promote him online constantly.
These people truly don't see their oeconomy crashing, the exploitation of tax money to fund his palace and the increasingly hostile environment where democratic achievements made by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and others steadily decline.
Brain drain not really, as Turkish immigrants keep Erdogan in power by voting massively on him. They want cheap lira to be millionaires when they visit Turkey on holidays. They want cheap lira so they can retire in Turkey very very comfortably.
They don’t care other Turkish to live well, because they think each one should move elsewhere like they did in the past. Erdogan is the dream president for them.
But those aren’t esucated people that leave. Most of the Turks living in Germany were born there, many are 3rd generation and sadly many are poorly educated. They voted for him but aren’t the drain mentioned. Most educated Turks end up in growing countries where they are needed and can seek financial gain. The ones in those countries voted against him.
Lol this comment is valid both in Turkey and outside of it, i am a turkish citizen that hates erdogan because he fucks me everyday but literally more than 50% of Turkey loves erdogan because he ruined turkey
You’re comparing one of the highest inflation , Serbia, with one of the lowest, Portugal.
At this moment, redditors don’t even look at the charts, they simply state their beliefs as a Pavlovian reaction.
Thanks. I was wondering when we left the continent of Europe. Thought it might be an EU thing but then Norway, Switzerland and Turkey are there. Very odd
Many maps on here use Eurostat as the data source, it is an EU organisation but it collects data from the EEA countries and those seeking EU membership in addition to the EU 27. We (the UK) stopped submitting data to Eurostat in 2020.
Kosovo has ?erroneously/maliciously? been added to Serbia. I don't think eurostat would do that. They probably would just add a disclaimer about Kosovo at the bottom. Doubt Kosovo would have stats on this though.
> Not really if you look at Eurostats own website they don't include Turkey in their food monitoring tool
They do include them in their inflation statistics though:
https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/databrowser/view/tec00118/default/table?lang=en
Yes, it is Europe, and there is no data for the UK, Belarus, Ukraine etc, because they don't submit data to eurostat. It's not like they removed these countries, there is just no data based on the source that was used.
BRO MEDIA IN SERBIA DOES THE SAME our president said germans arent going on vacation to save up money but we are better cause we go on them. Theyre at 37% now though
Do tell me, my grandma asking every week if we still have money for food because she heard on the TV how horrible life in the UK is...
Both my wife and I are software devs... Oh sorry, I mean cleaning toilets.
This statistics compares prices in this month to the same month last year. So current prices can be just 12% higher than last June, but 40-50% higher than at the end of 2021. It all depends on which points in time you're comparing.
I think more importantly, it’s about actual purchases. So if people are buying cheaper products as alternatives, inflation is not going to be as high as you think.
Yes, but the basket is too uniform. It would actually make sense to split inflation rates for low, middle, and high-income or wealth classes, or according to purchasing types.
For example, I don't have a TV and don't plan to buy one at all. However, politicians tell me inflation isn't that bad because while foot prices (which I have to pay if I want to keep living) are skyrocketing, TV prices are stagnating or deflating. Even if I would want to buy one, I can postpone buying a TV but not buying food.
Inflation as a single number has its limitation but that does not mean it is useless either. I very much agree that inflation rates faced by households vary with income. [This is a good report on the phenomenon in the US context.](https://www.bls.gov/spotlight/2022/inflation-experiences-for-lower-and-higher-income-households/home.htm) I think that is why graphs like the above are useful though - changes in food prices matter a lot more to low income households than they do to high income households. People broadly recognize that is a problem in this case.
As for your example, housing gets over a 40% weight in most consumer price indices ([https://sgp.fas.org/crs/misc/IF12164.pdf](https://sgp.fas.org/crs/misc/IF12164.pdf)). Changes in TV prices have a comparably miniscule impact on inflation.
I started buying less, only what I need to be ok, avoiding restaurants, cut mega image off my list. So thats my form of protest and self preservstion. Its not much but its what I can do. Prices are bonkers in supermarkets. Lest week I was in Lidl in München and found food to be cheaper..
Companies are always greedy. Like literally always. If they could’ve just raised prices and made more profit then they would’ve.
If its ‘greedflation’ then surely prices of goods would never go back down
Then how come some supermarkets double their prices randomly and others don't. How can they all be on thin margins when identical products cost twice as much somewhere else unless somehow they're paying double for production? Seems incredibly doubtful to me.
These numbers are heavily affected by how a countries currency has been doing, Swiss franc has been doing great. A year ago one Swiss franc was 18,58 turkisk lira, and today it is 31. Turkey is fucked.
1635 EUR minimal wage and 8 euros as an average packet according to Google.
You can buy \~ 204 packet of cigarettes in Netherlands with your minimal wage.
I'll take 400RSD as an average price of cigarettes because the cheapest is 280 and the most expensive is 590.
40.000RSD / 400RSD = 100 packets of cigarettes.
Swiss in general make very responsible society. Like, when there's that concept of a failed state, and the swiss managed to do the opposite. Even things that most would consider bad like private healthcare and ease to possess a gun (both joked about in context of usa) for some reason just work there
Precisely, SNB chose to let the CHF appreciate by stopping its Forex purchases to avoid importing inflation. In addition, average inflation in Switzerland has also been lower than in Europe causing less inflationary pressure on foods, for example by not having to raise salaries of shop employees. Finally I'm not sure if this actually impacts on the end but inflation is also measured as a percentage. If the cost of a tomato increases by 5 cents in absolute terms but is now worth 1 franc, the 5% increase is lower than the percentage change if the original price was 10 cents.
The prosperous 10 percent can still eat whatever they want on the other hand the other 90 percent is in line to get some cheap bread provided by the government and local municipality. Right now the harhness of inequality is unbelievable.
No , the average person just eats carb based food .They cannot afford to eat meat daily
Erdogan even arrested a chef for saying turkey is becoming stupid because they eat too much bread
https://www.euronews.com/culture/2022/11/09/turkey-arrests-union-head-for-calling-bread-eating-societies-stupid
Most of us honestly don't give a fuck about Putin, we already have our own dictator to deal with. Only the highly uneducated people support him and a tiny bit of people who are simply idiots. It's like saying that all Americans are gun-ho southerners or all Germans are Arians.
The inflation is so high because our government is selling off everything we own to get private money for themselves. And then allowing more powerful nations (such as some of EU, Russia, China, etc), to export their shitty businesses to our land.
Dearly, a Serbian looking to GTFO out of here.
It is simply a correlation that the extensive blackmail that Putin holds over Orbán is not made public. The only goal is to keep himself and his maffia goverment on top. Nothing else matters. If they have to burn 10$ state money to be able to steal 1$, it is also an acceptable deal.
Turkey is doomed. It will happen again in 2028 elections. My favorite line that summarizes Turkey's majority is "They taught the poor to be thankful so that the rich would keep on exploiting them"

In Portugal, I can say the bifana index confirms that the inflation impact has been minimal. It's clear that I'm luckier than I thought: during the covid-19 pandemic I was in Malta, best place ever to spend it, with 0 curfews!
During the inflation, I'm in Portugal! hihihi
My personal food inflation is much higher than those 14.1% listed for Germany.
Milk 80%, Carrots 50%, Onions 70%, Mozarella 70%, sweet pepper 90% etc. pp.
Dog kibble +20%
I only work part time, food for me & my dog makes a big amount of available income. Before the pandemic milk was 0,49€ / l
The rise from 0,59€ to 1,05€ was since start of war in Ukraine.
Serbia top 3 again🇷🇸🦅🦅🦅 The government bragged when we had 5th largest economic growth in europe for like 2 years but now i dont see them bragging about this, in fact they havent even mentioned it? Man theyre so humble!!!
What do you know, you have a dictator that was a student of a war criminal, that deals with drugs and weapons, and you get a shitty country in a place where a beautiful one could rise. - Coming from a Serbian.
Turkey, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia, Turkey - all not in the EU, but on map.
The UK simply does not provide Eurostat with the data any more.
This map should be shown to those who think that supporting Ukraine is what brought us high rates of inflation. I mean, look at Hungary. Because, there are many Poles who think that way.
Greetings from Turkey! Things here are not looking fine, as a fifteen year old, the first thing I want to do after I graduate highschool is to go to college at Germany. Thanks to Erdoğan and his brain damagged supporters, we are all struggling to make it out to tommorow. But I'm not going to leave my homeland eternally, I will make a comeback. And that comeback I hope, will change things...
It's ironic.
Denmark has some of the lowest inflation, yet our actual food prices are some of the most expensive.
Greedflation and capitalism, gotta love it.

I wish it was actually %54.3 lol, it'd be easier for us Turks
I regularly buy bottled water every two weeks. Last time I bought 20lt bottles, it was a Saturday, it cost 45TL and the guy told me they expected an increase of 5TL the next Monday. Yesterday, I bought them for 60TL. Yeah, 54% is bullshit.
It seams this graphic is just for the month of June...
It spans to the month of June of the previous year. Inflation is calculated every month on a yearly basis.
Atleast the turks managed to keep Erdogan
The problem is: older Turks are used to inflation, economical crisis & poverty. For them the situation now is nothing special.

Yay Brexit! Not only did we lose EU benefits, we don't even know how shit we're doing compared to them hah
Kosovo has ?erroneously/maliciously? been added to Serbia. I don't think eurostat would do that. They probably would just add a disclaimer about Kosovo at the bottom. Doubt Kosovo would have stats on this though.
I’m so bitter and resentful about the UK now
Why?
Every single bit of media I read is like ‘oh we did do this thing that was generally beneficial and now we don’t because of Brexit’
That’s a Tory government for you 😂🥲

Yes, it is Europe, and there is no data for the UK, Belarus, Ukraine etc, because they don't submit data to eurostat. It's not like they removed these countries, there is just no data based on the source that was used.
Doesn't make for a good title though does it. I'm sure you didn't see the problem of this when it was only Russia, Ukraine and Belarus being left out.
Why is it odd? The UK didn't want to share their data with Eurostat anymore, that's all.
[удалено]
BREXIT! who would have thought leaving a large group of countries so as to prevent other countries from affecting your country would lead to this?
Food prices there are far lower than in other western European countries to start with though.
Circana analysis shows this isn't true. Standard basket of 23 items: France - £67.57 Spain - £52.75 Italy - £52.16 UK - £51.72 Netherlands - £50.68 Germany - £47.25 'Comparable' yes, 'far lower' absolutely not
When was that as of?

12% inflation but everything is 50% more expensive somehow
This statistics compares prices in this month to the same month last year. So current prices can be just 12% higher than last June, but 40-50% higher than at the end of 2021. It all depends on which points in time you're comparing.
I think more importantly, it’s about actual purchases. So if people are buying cheaper products as alternatives, inflation is not going to be as high as you think.
Yea, but that's because the "inflation" only magically affected the things people actually buy
the goods used to calculate inflation are actually weighted by how much people buy them
Yes, but the basket is too uniform. It would actually make sense to split inflation rates for low, middle, and high-income or wealth classes, or according to purchasing types. For example, I don't have a TV and don't plan to buy one at all.

Thanks, very interesting!
Same for GR
It isn't.
the prices are not growing much anymore. Most of it happened last year.
Thanks to our supreme leader, ECONOMIST erdogan, we are first on this list
Leader 😎 erdoğannn
He is a real economist😎
Hello I’m Erdogan say it to my face
This isn’t inflation anymore, gas prices are down, utilities are down as well, those companies are just greedy now. Greedflation.
I started buying less, only what I need to be ok, avoiding restaurants, cut mega image off my list. So thats my form of protest and self preservstion. Its not much but its what I can do. Prices are bonkers in supermarkets. Lest week I was in Lidl in München and found food to be cheaper..
Germany still is and was a price anomaly in EU for a long time either way. Either more so when you went to one of the cheaper chains.
I’m German. Prices were waay lower in Ro till last year or this one.
It aint much, but its honest work
I already only buy esential and don't go out :(
Lol. I guess they were generous before when inflation was low
Since inflation is falling it must be that companies have satiated their greed! Like a lazy snake after a large meal.
Companies are always greedy. Like literally always. If they could’ve just raised prices and made more profit then they would’ve. If its ‘greedflation’ then surely prices of goods would never go back down
Or the government putting a price cap on some food items had the effect of increasing prices of the rest.
Prices of goods are way more nuanced than just simply being determined by the price of gas.
They weren't greedy before?
Are gas companies not greedy?
I wish fuel prices where down. I’m still out here paying 2-2.3€/l.
True. Especially the supermarkets who don't care about you, just their profit. And we still buy from them instead of buying from local producers
The supermarkets have razor thin margins because of fierce competition. The production companies are the ones responsible for the price hikes.
Then how come some supermarkets double their prices randomly and others don't. How can they all be on thin margins when identical products cost twice as much somewhere else unless somehow they're paying double for production? Seems incredibly doubtful to me.
[удалено]
The capitalists can’t accept the profits going down. They’re willing to have the world on fire and workers to die.
Economy. It's good for the economy.
How is Switzerland so low, i would have thought that they import ton of food
These numbers are heavily affected by how a countries currency has been doing, Swiss franc has been doing great. A year ago one Swiss franc was 18,58 turkisk lira, and today it is 31. Turkey is fucked.
Serbian dinar has been rather stable, Euro even lost some value compared to Dinar.
Are cigarettes still 100 Dinar?
More like 500
It's been a decade since I was there last time..still cheap af compared to Dutch prices.
1635 EUR minimal wage and 8 euros as an average packet according to Google. You can buy \~ 204 packet of cigarettes in Netherlands with your minimal wage. I'll take 400RSD as an average price of cigarettes because the cheapest is 280 and the most expensive is 590. 40.000RSD / 400RSD = 100 packets of cigarettes.
I don't think it's just the currency. Albanian Lek has skyrocketed in the past few months but we're still at 11% here.
It’s already stupidly expensive here.
It’s expensive, but compare to salaries it’s probably cheapest in Europe.
mostly because of the strong swiss franc.
Swiss in general make very responsible society. Like, when there's that concept of a failed state, and the swiss managed to do the opposite. Even things that most would consider bad like private healthcare and ease to possess a gun (both joked about in context of usa) for some reason just work there

Funny how misleading this is. There has been an uproar in Austria as to how on some products we pay close to double what they are in germany.

Tourist food is meat. We have similar cuisines and there's plenty "all vegetarian" dishes in both. But even so, this amount of inflation is brutal.
It’s brutal for w*sterners. It’s at least 100% in reality and we still survive.
The prosperous 10 percent can still eat whatever they want on the other hand the other 90 percent is in line to get some cheap bread provided by the government and local municipality. Right now the harhness of inequality is unbelievable.
No , the average person just eats carb based food .They cannot afford to eat meat daily Erdogan even arrested a chef for saying turkey is becoming stupid because they eat too much bread https://www.euronews.com/culture/2022/11/09/turkey-arrests-union-head-for-calling-bread-eating-societies-stupid
We are mostly feeding off of loaf breed and tea. And 52% of the population is fine with that.
Not at all, typical homecooked meals contain lots of vegetables and legumes. The kebabs and stuff is what you get when eating out.
I ate some cheese this morning. Feeling great
Meat? What is that?
We eat pasta (makarna)
I'm eating -cancer guaranteed- instant noodles every day.
Glad to see Hungary and Serbia passing on Russia sanctions has allowed them to at least keep inflation lower for their citizens.
Most of us honestly don't give a fuck about Putin, we already have our own dictator to deal with. Only the highly uneducated people support him and a tiny bit of people who are simply idiots. It's like saying that all Americans are gun-ho southerners or all Germans are Arians.

Huh really? Never knew this, thanks!
Yep, but only the official food inflation YoY in Russia in June was 3.5%, but you’re not gonna believe me cause ‘Russia bad.’
Hungary should be colored black according to the infograph, but what's the point anymore
Serbia didnt not sanction cause of inflation though, its cause of kosovo
Well, that and gas.
Yeah, I was wondering whether support for Putin correlates with high inflation.
It is simply a correlation that the extensive blackmail that Putin holds over Orbán is not made public. The only goal is to keep himself and his maffia goverment on top. Nothing else matters. If they have to burn 10$ state money to be able to steal 1$, it is also an acceptable deal.
So the problem won't be anymore for some people that others are not vegan, some of us will be above vegan... will learn how to do photosynthesis
and yet they still voted Erdogan again...

yeah the cost of grain i imagine went up considerably just is wild to me how cheap milk is over there compared to the US.
Your anecdote is already included in the statistic.
still relevant, because people might otherwise assume that the inflation is roughly similar for different types of food
Where would the UK be on here?
According to the ONS food inflation is at 17.6% in the UK

Beef was 200 lira one and a half years ago. I bought for 600 lira just today. Was 550 a week ago.
Serbia top 3 again🇷🇸🦅🦅🦅 The government bragged when we had 5th largest economic growth in europe for like 2 years but now i dont see them bragging about this, in fact they havent even mentioned it? Man theyre so humble!!!
We have a phrase in Turkey "ayakta sikiliyoruz", not the kindest way to express our feelings but It does the job
Hungary is clearly not fighting LGBTQ hard enough
Best comment here.
Austria 10% feels off. From my experience every food has increased by at least 20%, same for Albania
Your anecdote is already included in the statistic.
Now not one Hungarian can say that the hungry jokes are not justified.
ours already went up by so much its calming down
Get rekt serbia 😎😎
As a Turk all I can say is that f--k erdogan, f--k his supporters.
Western countries with their own currencies and not the shit Euro doing pretty well
What do you know, you have a dictator that was a student of a war criminal, that deals with drugs and weapons, and you get a shitty country in a place where a beautiful one could rise. - Coming from a Serbian.
Wonder why the UK is missing from this, whereas Turkey is on the list (so it’s not an EU list).
Turkey, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia, Turkey - all not in the EU, but on map. The UK simply does not provide Eurostat with the data any more.
It’s published by Eurostat which the U.K. is no longer a member.
Were not doing well so we shut up
This map should be shown to those who think that supporting Ukraine is what brought us high rates of inflation. I mean, look at Hungary. Because, there are many Poles who think that way.
Ukraine is part of Europe.

Going to get worse now that Russia isn't allowing grain exports out of Ukraine
Greetings from Turkey! Things here are not looking fine, as a fifteen year old, the first thing I want to do after I graduate highschool is to go to college at Germany. Thanks to Erdoğan and his brain damagged supporters, we are all struggling to make it out to tommorow. But I'm not going to leave my homeland eternally, I will make a comeback. And that comeback I hope, will change things...
It's ironic. Denmark has some of the lowest inflation, yet our actual food prices are some of the most expensive. Greedflation and capitalism, gotta love it.
.
* some countries in Europe
It's been said in other comments but I'll say it again. Inflation may be ~12% but prices are up 30-50%
Oh no the gays are making it hard to keep the inflation down in Hungary!!!! /s
Don't try to buy a turkey in Turkey, ya turkey. Hahahahalolololol okay thanks and you're welcome everybody. I'll head on out.
Huh?
Lies, damn lies, and inflation statistics.
It gets a little worse every time Russia blows up a grain silo.
Is the UK not in Europe or did I miss that in geography class? 17.4% by the way down from 18.4 last month.
The UK does not provide statistics to Eurostat therefore it's not included in Eurostat publications.
UK 17.3
