Rising fuel prices, stock market volatility and global instability are creating new financial pressures for households across the US. Recent conflict in the Middle East has pushed diesel prices above $5 a gallon and driven wider concerns about inflation and a potential economic slowdown.

Higher transport and supply costs are also beginning to feed through into the price of everyday goods and services, pushing up the cost of living.

We want to hear how people in the US are responding to the current economic climate.

Have you noticed changes to your finances or everyday costs in recent weeks? Have you seen price rises, changes to mortgage or loan rates or other increases in household bills? Are you cutting back on spending, saving more or rethinking financial decisions?
