Price Hikes Continue Across Items Across the Nation
Prices rise again as the Interstate Commerce Commission approves a 15 percent freight-rate boost, with increases from 35 to 130 percent on some fuel priced items. The 1040 listed goods include furniture, clothing, toys, tools, and electronics though refrigerators and major appliances are not included. OPS notes the impact is about three fourths of a percent of retailer sales and most durable goods shelves remain stocked, making a broad price surge unlikely.
