sherman13-ga,
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics makes available the data for the
Consumer Price Index market baskets in an online database, where you
can design a query to pull out the items, regions, and years of
interest to you.
The BLS database is here:
http://data.bls.gov/PDQ/outside.jspsurvey=ap
I extracted the average city prices for the US, for all listed goods
in January of all the years of record.
The full list is below, but as an example, you can see the price of a
loaf of white bread went from 50.1 cents in 1980, to a bit less than
$1.05 in 2006.
Similarly, a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline went from 60.5 cents
in 1976, to $2.31 and 5/10ths in 2006 (I wish! Remember, this was
back in January).
I trust this list provides you the credible and detailed information you needed.
But if there's anything else I can do for you, let me know by posting
a Request for Clarification, and I'm at your service.
Cheers,
pafalafa-ga
