The recent surge in Inflation has impacted many families in many different ways according to a consumer analysist. 

Lisa Miller, during a recent interview on KRZK’s “Ozarks Now” program, said a recent survey taken indicates that 42% of American families living paycheck to paycheck while the number jumps up to 63% of single Mom families living paycheck to paycheck. 

Fuel and childcare costs along with rising rent rates are some of the factors that families are having to deal with in budgeting for living expenses. 
Miller says that retailers for the most part are trying to keep prices as reasonable as possible as well as keep salaries high enough to fund their costs of living.
