According to Mom, our total household budget was OneBuck per day. Half of that I made selling papers.

"Dad made $25 a week"

Now that $25 will buy you a couple of bags of groceries, if you're lucky. Thanks Federal Reserve!

Just think, 50 years from now, our grandkids will be reminiscing on how you could get your food shopping done for under $200 a week...
