The Gloom and Doom crown continue to amaze everyday. When figures showed that inflation was on the way up, they never questioned the data. However, all of a sudden now that inflation data start showing that inflation is on the way down, the Gloom and Doom start questioning the Data.

We can all combat inflation. You just need to stand up and act and not let yourself to be the demotivated by Labour mottos about 'L-gholi tal-hajja'. Labour only has votes to win but YOU have money to save.

Electricity? Ignorance is the first killer. If you fail to take the grants provided by the government on electricity saving then its your fault. Solar heaters, e/saving light bulbs and Triple A e/saving appliances will chop off your electricity bill by two thirds in an instant.

Food? Doing your monthly grocery purchase from a recently opened huge supermarket instead of a small grocery store can reduce your bill by up to 25% !!! Dont go too late though, the prices are so good that you end up with empty shelves by 10am.

Clothes? Nowadays you get warehouse sales with the best products & makes at the price of spare change.

Cars? A friend of mine recently purchased a fully loaded used renault megane from the UK for LM4000 including reg tax, transporation, etc.

Travel? I just booked a flight to London for just Lm11.50 taxes included, yes taxes included.

Whoever wants a copy of the receipts just send me an email.

Please give me an example where the prices have went down? medicines maybe? food?
I would like to point out that the goverment should realy take into consideration adopting a tapes and measure rule to certain businesses as it seems that everything that you buy now a days seems to get smaller and smaller, example, pre packed ham, cheese, you pay for one kilo and you get 850 grams, the bread is getting smaller, paint is getting lighter, do you get my DRIFT, can the goverment at least supply a body of people that can overlook our basic rights as we are paying for these things.

Were those who checked the prices ever in Malta?
Ask the people not the government.
