Inflation in Montenegro is skyrocketing, but your paycheck isn’t keeping up! According to Monstat data, consumer prices in June were 4.2% higher than the same month last year. Just in June alone, prices rose 0.4% compared to May. The biggest price jumps hit fruits, accommodation, bread, milk, meat, fuel, and air travel. From January to June, average inflation was 3.3%. Restaurants and hotels saw prices climb 2.5%, transport 1.2%, and food and non-alcoholic drinks 0.9%. Meanwhile, clothing and footwear got cheaper by 3.4%, but that’s little comfort when fuel and food are draining your budget. Wages aren’t keeping pace with this surge, and living costs are climbing like never before. Inflation isn’t just a number—it’s your wallet screaming for help! What do you think, how long can this go on? Drop your thoughts, let’s see who else is feeling this punch to the pocket!
