MoneyWatch price tracker shows how much food, utility, housing costs are rising

As consumers cope with lingering cost-of-living pressures and the potential impact of tariffs, CBS News is tracking the change in prices of everyday household expenses — from food to utilities and rent.

Use the tool below to explore price changes in dozens of items across different categories.

The categories in this tracker reflect a selection from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index and average price data. We focused on goods and services that make up a meaningful share of household budgets, could be affected by tariffs or have seen significant price changes since 2022.
