HARARE - The price of bread shot up 60% overnight in Zimbabwe, in the latest blow for a population already struggling with spiralling living costs.
Electricity is only available for around six hours a day, forcing many bakers to use generators to run their ovens. The price of a loaf of bread soared to 15 Zimbabwe dollars on Wednesday from nine dollars the previous day, according to an AFP correspondent. After decades of mismanagement under the late dictator Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwe reached absurd levels of hyperinflation in 2008-2009 when the central bank started printing money.
The reality of a 300+% inflation rate. Soon it will jump 100% in a day, then an hour...

That's what happens in a hyperinflation environment. Just sad
