According to the summary, every second resident of the Czech Republic switched to buying cheaper goods in recent months. The data shows that Czechs are spending less on things like clothing or entertainment in order to cover the increased cost of food, energy and transport.

98 percent of the Czech population perceives the worsening situation of the economy, in addition to the fact that, according to one third of those surveyed, the press exaggerates the problems.

Almost half of the respondents cope with rising prices by switching to buying cheaper products. About 25 percent of them continue to buy the same goods, but in smaller quantities. And 17 percent of people are still considering changing their habits and will buy cheaper.

As a result of rising prices, half of Czechs go to restaurants less often and travel less. Another 37 percent are looking for a cheaper version of these.
