Anyone else have a hard time believing the official inflation numbers? Housing, food, restaurants, electricity, hotels,... anything I can think of that I buy regularly all seems significantly more expensive than it did 10 years ago - much higher than the official numbers would lead me to expect.

This is my experience as well ... and healthcare and education costs have also gone up much faster than the stated rate of inflation. There are a few areas --- like consumer electronics and maybe food --- where this isn't the case or prices have actually gone down, but only a very few.
