If you're paying more than $250-300 for a quality zip right now, you need to find a new hookup (or you're selling fake bake Delta-8 on the internet). Weed is cheaper now than anytime I've seen, also much easier to find (since late '90s).

Double QP meal at McDonald’s was 4.10.

A CD with one good song on it was 17.99. If you were luck a few others were decent.

A SNES game that had a great commercial but was complete shite but you didn’t know it because the only reviews were from Nintendo Power which took bribes. 49.99.

I can remember when stamps were 10 cents and Cokes are still 50 cent in the vending machine at our office. We own the machine and are not trying to make a profit off the drinks. Pretty much a convenience for the employees.

I worked at a trucking line while I was going to college. I made $12 Per hour there for 4 years. I got out of college in 1987 with a EET.

Go hired at a local company that I had been targeting the entire time I was going to school. I started at $20,000. So I quit a job making 12 per hour to make 10 with a 4 year engineering degree
