Study: Czechs’ biggest expense their accomodation

Czechs’ biggest expense is their accommodation, an international study released on Tuesday suggests. Following accommodation, Czechs spend the most on groceries and transport, the Barometr Cetelem 2009 found. The results mirrored those of previous years, the head of Cetelem, Václav Horák said. Some 85 percent of respondents said that they expected their housing costs to rise over the coming year, while 75 percent said they expected price rises at supermarkets and 72 percent foresaw increased transport costs.
