You had mentioned the price of the All-American, hope you don’t mind me putting this here on the forum. I’m just too lazy to go into mail. lol
I really wish I had bought the All-American back when I bought the presto! The Presto has only gone up about 20%. I think the all Americans gone up at least 50%. Oh well I got it anyway. I don’t know how much the good grain mills were back then, but I’m sure I’m losing a similar amount of money for not having gotten a good one.
I think we all know what you mean and agree with you.
"Back then" was the best time to buy a lot of things I wish we had been able to afford at the time.
But right now is the second best time.
We are being forced into a "new normal" like what happened to us after the 1973-1974 oil embargo when gas prices doubled driving the price of everything else up.
And once the value of the dollar plumets and orices skyrocket there is no going back.
One big difference is that the embargo was largely created by foreign powers and forced on us.
This Bidenomic disaster is homemade and was 100% avoidable and it's probably intentional .
If/when democrats and RINOs finish destroying the economy and what's left of our culture our world will change in ways almost unimaginable just a generation ago.
If the Stuff Hits The Fan gold will still be around somewhere but we can't eat it.
And there won't be big supplies of canners and jars on the shelves of the looted and bankrupt stores at any price.
A good pressure canner, a supply of jars and lids and other prepper/survival tools will be worth more than gold.
