Just back from breakfast $50.00 for the wife & I. French toast and Eggs Benedict.
DAMN! When did it get so expensive to eat?

When I was a kid, we would sometimes get breakfast at Sambo's I could order anything on the menu so long as it was under three dollars.

... When did it get so expensive to eat?

Yes.

The very reason why silber is at $79. It's a correction. It's not that silber is so expensive, its that our money is so worthless. Inflation has devoured it.

I remember being a kid and going to a local diner and buying a meal for .65¢. Grilled cheese, chips and a pickle, tomato soup, small drink or coffee. If I heard change jingling in my pocket I was money.

BTW I loved Sambo's, then it turned into Denny's.

You could get a damn good breakfast for a silver dollar, still can...

 

[Bottom Feeder]

betcha the cashier wouldn't take it when you went to pay yer bill, though

Ya know, on second thought, with all the yammering about silber everywhere, there might be a better chance of getting it accepted. Tiny bit…

At the airport the other day, I stopped by Wendy's and asked to break a ten (for Van driver tips). The don't deal with cash anymore...

That makes me feel better about our breakfast shenanigans this morning, 2x bacon and eggs with sourdough toast, 2x coffees, AUD$49.50

$33 per pound. Not even “prime.” Took that yesterday. Brother said, “That’s almost half an ounce of silver.” Same as above

Here's the thing,
You paid the 50 bucks, for a half dozen eggs & couple slices of bread.
As long as folks pony up for higher prices, price inflation will continue.
Higher wages, don't solve inflation.
They just solidify the new price floor.
I can remember back when a popular refrain on GIM was "I don't want to live in a world where gold is $6K an ounce.
Well here we go.

That same cut here would cost AUD$49/kg

yeah, but our beef is packed with extra nutrients, like antibiotics and GMO corn.

A kilo is 2.2 pounds and the Aus dollar is only worth 72 US cents.

The math works out to about $16US per pound in Australia or about what it was on the US a few years ago.

That, and the dumbo-crack Woketards have been pushing a fake Bird Flu narrative to extinct chickens.

Maybe they don't know that eggs come from chickens - not from Whole Foods.

Their masters know, though - they're all excited about putting us on a 100-percent processed-grain diet...Frosted Flakes, morning, noon; and Beyond Meat for dinner!

This is EXACTLY what comes of making our diet, political.

Working on the ray-rode out of Cleveland...I sometimes had to cover for a local job out of Ashtabula. Sixty miles away. I'd have to drive there.

At the freeway turnoff, was a Flying J. Now, I know now that most Flying Js were, when they were an independent company...were a bit run down towards the end. Not this one - it was the first in our part of Ohio, and it was as well-operated as a Petro (or how a Petro used to be).

They'd have a breakfast buffet every morning from five to noon - intended for the drivers, but anyone could order it. I would - and I'd have about four plates. My doctor would have had a heart attack; but back in the day, I thrived eating like that.

It would cost $6.99. And that would be all the food I'd need that day - just an apple or something for noon; skip dinner.

Now, I'm reading that the Vegas buffets that used to be $4.99 are $49.99.
