Fewer Americans think prices are rising

The Ipsos Consumer Tracker asks Americans questions about culture, the economy and the forces that shape our lives. Here's one thing we learned this week.

Why we asked: As tariff news comes and goes and comes and goes and pauses, we thought it would be good to check in on what impact, if any, people think it’s having on their grocery bills. 

What we found: Across a range of staples and utilities, fewer people think they are paying higher prices than thought so in late February. On everything — meat, fresh produce, electricity, food at restaurants, and perhaps most importantly gasoline and total grocery bill — we saw declines of roughly 10 points.
