Consumer goods were 1.7 percent more expensive in November than in the same month last year, while the prices of services increased by 5.3 percent from a year earlier, the Central Statistical Office reported.

Consumer prices in #Poland in November 2019, compared with November 2018, increased by 2.6% (price index 102.6).
