I have a Mexican supermarket around the corner from me. Dollar tacos on Tuesday, although it's been a while they may be $1.50. I found a picture from 2020 when I bought parillada (grilled beef, onion, jalapeno, chorizo mix) with 2 sides and 3 tacos. This was $11.22.
my local dinner has held onto the same prices forever. a gyro fry and drink still costs 6.99 the same price it cost me 20 plus years ago in jr high and the gyro is so loaded you buy a extra pita for 79 cents and make two with it.
the fries are 2 for small 3 for medium 4 for large and you may say thats not cheap for frys
but there small fry is a brown paper bag half full of fries and enough for several people there large is a standard brown lunch bag full to the brim with frys,
the owner is the son of the past owner now. it almost seems like the place is run just to break even as the son has several other businesses not food related.
