quoting note1kkn…5v64What did a meat pie cost when you were a kid #AUStriches?
When talking about inflation with normies, this is my go to question. Lunch from the school canteen or tuck shop depending when/where you grew up was a rare treat, those prices are ingrained in the psyche even if they don’t think about it much.
Here’s some examples I found:
1974: 20 cents
1977: 25 cents
1982: 65 cents
1986: 72 cents
2001: $1.50
2003: $2.00
2004: $2.15
2018: $3.40
2023: $5.50
