I've noticed that the important things in life have really started to come down in price...
Two years ago vs today:
Gas—
was: $3.50/gallon, today: $1.54 (just filled my tank for less than $18)Car Insurance—
was: $1,500/year, today: approx. $1k (got married etc)Rent—
was $920/ month (didn't include utils), today: $792 (includes all utils)Weed—
was $60 / 8th, today: $35 / 8th (same stuff... if not better)The only thing that's really gone up in price is eggs. I recall getting a dozen organic for about $2.25... now I can't find them for under $3.50.
