The cost of dining out has risen at the fastest pace in four years, new data shows
Chew on this.
Dining out is getting very expensive: As Marketwatch reported Thursday, “the cost of going out to eat or getting take-out food is rising at the fastest pace in more than four years.” Over the past year, these prices have risen 3.1%, compared to just about 1% for groceries, according to the latest consumer price index.
And that’s likely going to be a big budget buster for Americans once again. More than half confessed to making a financial mistake when pursuing their financial goals — and the most common mistake had to do with dining out.
