The average sandwich made of bread, meat, cheese, done vegetables and various condiments goes from 3 to 8 dollars
What kind of sandwiches are those?
I really can’t wait for TikTok to get shut down because the CCP refuses to sell.
Arby’s had a five for five roast beef…
I remember getting those big matrices of Arby’s coupons like once a week, and they were actually decent.
Used to love me a Big Montana. Back before 99% of fast food turned to shit and went up in price by 10x

6.99 a sub for any sub was the last deal, until I went almost ordered 4 subs and it was fucking $40 still. Somehow $28 worth of subs wound up costing a little over $40. Fuck that shit, those are capriottis prices and id much rather have caps.
🎶 five dollar 1¼ foot longggg 🎶
There ya go lol
You can still be a middle-aged Tiktok star complaining about the high prices compared to the good old days.
That option remains. Seize it. Dominate the airwaves. Organize a rebellion.
Saw a canister of alive oil going for almost $50 the other day, tsk
Climate change fucked the harvest, and probally will continue to do so.
Alive oil comes from the fountain of youth. For a canister that’s a great deal!
And cups of yogurt go from 25¢ to $1.50 while also going from 8oz to 5.5oz.

It used to be born just in time to order LSD off the Internet. I am sure this is still somewhat possible.
Yeah you can, you just need XMR instead of BTC and the markets have new names.
And if you were to find this out…
We’re not getting rich in this economy may as well do drugs
I was amazed a McRib combo is only 8 dollars… ONLY 8 dollars…
And that’s still too rich for my blood, fuck you McDonalds, I curse you and mourn that I took the Dollar Menu for granted
I blame Hardee’s normalizing a $6 burger mid 2000’s, oh and greed, a fuck ton of greed.
They couldn’t even offer the $6 Burger for $6 longer than a month or so. They were almost immediately $7 or more. They were also supposed to be comparable to a sit-down restaurant burger. Somehow they cost more and are lower quality. It’s cheaper to get a burger at Denny’s than it is to get a burger at any fast food place these days, and it’s a better and bigger burger.
At least where I was, when it came out it was $5 for the ‘six-dollar burger’, almost immediately after they threw in a bunch of other ‘big’ burgers. Odd that they tried to makr a 1/3 pound burger seem huge when McDonald’s (at least in America) had been offering double quarter pounders for longer than I can remember.
Yeah chili’s is 10.99 for an app, burger and fries
Why do you have to download an … oh an appetiser.
well but also just born in time to live the golden age of computer games as a teenager. oh man those gorgeous manuals of 1990-2000 era games
The golden age of computer/video game manuals, sure…
But if you think video games have gotten worse overall, then you are playing the wrong games. For one, “indie” games didn’t even exist.
Indie games existed, they were just called shareware
indie games didn’t even existindie games did not have to exist. indie game level of passion for the game you are creating was generally the norm back then. once the process is turned into an industrial pipeline you sacrifice aesthetics for output volume.Have video games gotten worse overall? On average yes. What percentage of the games being produced now can you say is on par with what you would call a creative and good game “back then”. We are basically swimming in a sea of garbage and indie games are a reaction to that. That can not, not be a problem but it also does not mean good games still don’t exist.
Civ2 manual was probably the biggest book I’d seen as kid apart from Bible
The joy of using red filters to find keywords to start those games.
As I read your comment, I could smell the manual, hear the gentle crack as I broke the hymen of a new manual, it’s semiglossy pages revealing the secrets of button layouts to me.
Uhhhh phrasing
They say it’s all about the timing.
Who tf pays $15 for a sandwich? Y’all motherfuckers need to learn how to cook.
Oh yeah apartment rentals/living in a vehicle are known worldwide for their spacious cabinets for pots, pans, cups, dishes, bowls, mugs, knives, forks, spatulas, spoons for eating and cooking, cutting boards, flour, sugar, yeast, oven mitts, thermometers, and sinks to clean up and counter space to cook and dry all that is needed for “learning to cook.”
Happy Thanksgiving.
Uhh, apartments have kitchens.
Some apartments have kitchenettes
Yeah y’all need to learn how to be self-sufficient! Look at the people surviving during the Great depression. That’s how we all need to be.
Yes let me just grow all the food I need and raise a cow for milk and a sheep to get wool for making my own clothes on my 4’x8’ balcony at my one bedroom apartment.
Not all of us, and I’d argue very few of us proportionally speaking, have all kinds of land to be able to do shit like that. Check your privilege, dude
I should have added a /s to my reply.
Haha no worries man, you can never tell these days
Honestly, yes. We need to learn how to make do with less. We can indulge when times are good, but some people just splurge in good times instead of saving and struggle to make do in bad times.
How much less though? Would you still be ok than less than the bare minimum to survive? How about at the bare minimum to survive? How long should we be put at that level?
I ask because most suffering today is caused by decisions made by people in power, not natural cycles.
A reasonable amount less. A small home, using public transit or specifically choosing a more fuel efficient vehicle, cooking instead of eating out constantly… I’m not saying we should be having less than necessary to survive, and wages are too low, but also good financial decision making goes a long way and learning to tighten your belt makes you more self reliant
I can agree with that. As long as we aren’t unnecessarily sucking the humanity out of things, I’m good with it.
Oh absolutely no sucking humanity out of things. More is learning to live within our collective means and learning to make that enjoyable and beautiful. And that includes making sure even affordable housing is clean, sufficient, and provides access to green spaces and the opportunity to garden.
What tf kind of lame ass strawman is that? News flash: its usually cheaper to prepare your own food. Film at 11.
I might have misunderstood the context. I took OPs post to mean the sandwich will eventually become 15 dollars, not that they are currently. So I took the post I replied to as indifferent to that future suffering. Was I mistaken?
Literally
My local sub shop has great sandwiches for $8
Same. People need to stop buying from giant corporations. Everything they sell is cheap shit sold at a ridiculous price now because investors expect a 30% profit margin.
For real. Who the fuck eats at subway these days, the food quality is absolute shit, they treat their staff like shit, and they charge you more for the pleasure
If my time working in one is any indication, taxi drivers and drunk people. I don’t think those demographics overlapped often, or at least I hope they didn’t
