The price tag for the PNC CPI is $27,673.21 in 2014, just $280.04 more than last year! However, Six Geese-A-Laying went up a whopping 71.4 percent!

Calculations were launched in 1984 by the PNC bank in Philadelphia.

"We calculated that, since 1984, the PNC CPI has increased a staggering 118%, not far off the U.S. inflation rate, which is 127%. Even more remarkable is that the average rate of increase per year is identical between the two indexes, at 2.8%.

Also related to services, in 2007, federal laws increased the minimum wage and gave the maids-a-milking their first raise since 1997. The wage increased again in both 2008 and 2009, and is now holding steady at $7.25 per hour."
