Six in ten Irish consumers have no extra money left at the end of the month.

New research from Deloitte has found Ireland is the second most concerned country about inflation out of 24 surveyed.

In what might be one of busiest weeks for Irish consumers this year, many are feeling the pinch.

New research from Deloitte shows 55 per cent of us feel we're financially worse off now than this time last year.

With many buying Christmas gifts this month, Irish consumers are findings ways to save elsewhere.

More than two-fifths carefully plan their grocery shop each month, which is more than the global average.

However, there has been some relief at the pumps, with 8 per cent of us less worried about the price of gas and fuel as costs have come down.

Overall 78 per cent of Irish consumers are worried about inflation, which is the second most of any country surveyed.
