The Data

The Extremes

The biggest winners and losers on your receipt.

Biggest price increases
Prices that fell
By Category

Food hit hardest. Tech got cheaper.

Average price change across 8 categories. Food and drink leads at +29.9%, while Clothing saw the smallest increases.

The Standout

Olive oil: £3.60 → £8.73

A 142.5% increase in five years. The single biggest price jump across all 408 items tracked by the ONS. Climate-driven harvest failures across the Mediterranean turned a kitchen staple into a luxury purchase.

Meanwhile, a large TV dropped 18.1% and primary school meals fell 35% thanks to the universal free school meals expansion.
