World’s Easiest Inflation Calculator
You know how people talk about how inflation has historically been 3 or 4%? Well I just found an inflation calculator at the Bureau of Labor Statistics that is straight from the source, ridiculously easy to use, colorful, and quick. The only downside is that the dollar values have to be under $10,000,000 (I have no idea why) but otherwise it’s really easy to use.
(okay this wasn’t a fun tool but I thought it was useful enough to mention)

Not true. I was able to enter values much higher than $10,000.
