We never reset after the price gouging corporations enacted during Covid, under the guise of "supply chain" issues. Prices never come down anymore. Even when Biden brought the inflation rate back down to ~2% when he left office, people were still stretched to the max. Economic indicators mean nothing to people who have choose between feeding their kids or paying rent. If MAGA continues to vote against their own economic interests, then I don't know what will save them... and us.

Speaking of bank holiday days falling inconveniently, here in France if the day off (of which, being a civilised country, we have many) falls on a Thursday or Tuesday most employers declare a “pont” which is a bridge between the day off and the weekend, so if it’s on a Thursday you also get Friday off, ditto Tuesday = Monday off also. The converse is that if the holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday you don’t get any extra time off. This month we have three bank holidays but two of them are on a Friday, so that means just the Friday off. Apparently it all evens out over time.
