Turn the headline into your basket

Use your real weekly spend

Replace the example basket with your own receipts so the result reflects what your household actually buys.

Keep the rate adjustable

The default 1.7% is a planning input from the latest grocery-food annual change, not a promise about every product or household.

Make a decision in the page

Use the weekly gap, four-week cost, annual impact, and per-person figure to decide whether to trim the basket or revise the limit.

For the latest official context, check the Stats NZ price-index release and the RBNZ inflation calculator after using the in-page estimate.
