Uhmm yeah but salaries were not high either, so the price of food has gone up but so has salaries. Not to the extent of food though. I had a Steers menu from 1994 lying around somewhere, wonder what the prices would've been like on that.
 
I don't see any image or attachment...

Am I missing something obvious or is it just not loading on my side?
 
Meh, back than it was still expensive.

2010 R1500 for a full load of groseries: OMG EXPENSIVE!

2000 R1000 for a full load of groseries: OMG EXPENSIVE!

1990 R500 for a full load of groseries: OMG EXPENSIVE!
 
i remember back in high school my mom would give me r50 for a night out, and i would buy smokes, get drunk (although it was probaby cheap and dodgy alcohol) and still wake up with change in my pocket....

...and that was about 10yrs ago
