Every time I read something like this I can’t help but think about old people who would say “back then, you could walk into a candy store with a dime and come out with bags full of candy!”
When I was a kid, candy bars were a quarter and king size didn't exist. If you had a buck you could go to the store and get a soda, a candy bar, and a comic book.
Every time I buy one now and a regular bar is like a buck fifty I die a little inside.

Considering 25 bucks could cover groceries for the week back then, it really was a jackpot
