Price monitor of the Federal Statistical Office
Status: Data from October 2009
Observe the price trends for frequently purchased products!
The charts show the trend of the consumer price index for Germany for some examples of goods and services.
In each category (for example food or clothing), frequently purchased products were selected as examples.
The data of the price monitor always refer to comparisons with 2005. The charts show the percentage by which the prices are higher or lower in a given month compared to the annual average in 2005. The price monitor will be updated monthly.
Example: value of -9% in January 2001 for UHT milk means that the prices of UHT milk in January 2001 were on an average 9% lower than in 2005.
