When I started my first real job in 2006, we had vending machines where everything was like .50 cents or .75 cents tops. I think that was over by around 2010. The dollar and $1.25 stayed for like 8 years after that. Now everything is $2 or more. Just for reference, I’ve been at the same job the entire time.
i wouldn’t go that far (i just bought a shitton of candy at 3 cents a piece) but i feel you.
It’s crazy because 10+ years ago, in high school, I could get a bag of chips at a vending machine for a dollar, now it’s probably 2.50 or 3 for chips.
