Sunglasses skyrocketed in price while shavers are cheaper than ever before. That’s why inflation is a bullshit concept. Price rises in some areas and goes down in others independently
Sunglasses are stupid expensive because the Italian company Luxottica owns just about every major brand as well as the stores they’re sold in, and jacks the prices through the roof because they e essentially bought up all the competition. Name brand sunglasses are a fucking scam.
You know I was joking, right? I have no idea about any of these prices. Only the last sentence was only half joking because inflation doesn’t differentiate between cost of living and luxury products so inflation doesn’t have to do with working people’s everyday lifes
That’s why the basket of goods for inflation changes.
It’s very hard, but useful, metric.
I got my sunglasses from amazon for like a hours wage. Polarised, 100% UV protection (I even got them independently checked), they lasted like 4 years so far.

People are stupid when they buy glasses.
