Food prices are the spending increase that affects people's personal finances most negatively right now. This is shown by an opinion poll recently conducted by the polling institute Kantar Public.

In East Central Sweden, 63% answered yes, 34% no and 3% were doubtful or did not know. However, it seems that people are generally not particularly concerned about personal finances because when asked "How worried are you about the following? That the money should not be enough for necessary expenses" answered 42% in East Central Swedish "Not at all worried", and 45% gave the answer "Not very worried"
