My monthly “big shopping” used to result in a brimming cartful for $200 or so. Now, $200 fills barely 3/4 of it.

I can remember my parents being shocked that $10 worth of groceries could fit into only two shopping bags. Of course, this was in the early 50s.

I still remember my grandma & grandpa (God Rest Their Souls) talking about 5 cent loaves of bread.
