#asknostr Is this the Weimar flu?

Does it feel around you like people still know how much things should cost? Or have we lost the referential prices already?

Around here, draft beer was always $5, ever since I remember. Now, when they ask for $8, I don't even know if they are ripping me off, or giving me a deal.

Today, I saw a simple wooden "anti anxiety dog crate" on local marketplace website for $600. It felt ridicilous. But then I saw these are really going for ~$500 in bunch of other places as well.

Well, it still feels like a ripoff, but I can see that many people in Austin would happily pay that.

Then I check the finance charts. Gold had its own 2k gang forever. By now, it's a lot closer to the 3k district.

I used to spend at least $50-60 taking my wife and daughter to dinner. Now it’s $90-100 at the same places.

And do you know if it's a good deal or a rip off?

I bought my mother lunch the other day - $55 that for a long time would have been $30

I can’t seem to get breakfast at a dinner for two for $30 anymore

58 sats for a zap that would have been 21 just a year ago
