Mostly people arguing that the numbers are "wrong" are misunderstanding what low inflation means. Low inflation means prices won't continue to rise. It does not mean that prices will come down. The prices you remember from two years ago, they're gone. They're not even considered when calculating inflation numbers now.
True, but price fluctuations are still "individual" things, when we consider the cost. The CPI is at best a very vague/inaccurate number for personal financial planning. Looking at one's bills are far more useful.
