Empty pockets and Christmas is coming . For Sardinian families it could be a very hard end of the year to spend sadly due to prices that show no signs of slowing down and incomes that remain anchored to the past.

The Findomestic observatory estimates that 40% of consumers are complaining about economic difficulties that will reduce purchases. And the Christmas Bonus promised by the Government in December will be of little use, considered by the Cgil "an alms" that will not change the fate of a now chronic consumer crisis. Adiconsum is making the situation worse, convinced that there is almost no monitoring of price increases and possible speculation and that in recent months only consumers have paid the price.

And if the present is gray, the future does not look any better. The probable price increases on food products and gas could in fact trigger the emergency with the arrival of the new year .
