What $10.00 gets you now-a-days

[ColbyBruce]

I have been searching for a few spare S&W SD9/SD9VE magazines that I could afford. I found a 17 round Sigma mag today for $10.00. It is filthy and has some corrosion that I expect will clean up. It is a perfect fit and drops easily out of both my guns. I hope to find a few more.

Hey, as long as it works, right?

The only listing I found was for two mags and it was marked sold.

You will find me at most gun shows digging in old boxes of unmarked magazines for those diamonds in in the rough.

Cost me $13.49 for a Whatasized patty melt meal at Whataburger today at lunch. $10 does not go very far these days.

I used to help my Dad at his business awhile for ten bucks to go out on.

The same pack of Camel non filters I used to pay .27 cents for or $2.25 a carton. Actually with tax a $10 spot won't buy a pack where I live.

Can't even buy a decent vote (now-a-days) for $10...

Cheers!

Even my go-to pre gun show breakfast at Whataburger, the #21 combo, jumped to $11.72 this weekend...It sure cuts into a feller's gun budget...Those aforementioned cigarettes were 35 cents a pack of Lucky Strikes in the coin operated machines when I gave them up 48 years ago......Ben

EDIT: The cheapest I ever paid for Luckies was 60 cents a carton at the Naval Air Station on Bermuda where I TDY'ed in the mid 60's...

The wife and I were just talking about this subject this morning. Twenty years ago when the Waffle House in our little town opened, we could get the two-egg breakfast for less than $10 for two. Now it's around $25.
