Does every thread have to include a reminder of how old I am? I remember living life $5 at a time.
Yup, me too. I used to be able to get lunch for a week with $20 back in high school in the mid-late 2000's. Almost everywhere had a dollar menu where you could get a pretty decent meal for a few bucks. Over time the portions got smaller and more expensive though to the point where you can't really do that anymore.
