No, it's not your imagination—grocery prices are going up. As are, most notably, gas prices and other commodities being impacted by the war in Ukraine. Food and beverage costs have been steadily rising before the sanctions, though. In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that inflation on groceries was increasing at its fastest rate in decades as of January 2022, up 7.4 percent in January compared to 2021.
