F. W. Woolworth's lunch counter menu 1970 - WOW!!

We had an Automat in Queens close to the OTB (Off Track Betting). My dad loved losing money on the horses. I always wanted to go into the Automat, That green Jello was calling my name. He never had money for that foolishness.

I wonder if the day will ever come when someone posts a 40 yr old 5 Guys menu and people say “Hamburgers used to be cheap back then!”

They gonna use their menu to brag about how prices have remained the same.

My grandmother worked at the Woolworth Lunch Counter. I loved the hot dogs.

Mine too, those were much simpler days it seems.

I dont know what prices were when I was growing up in the 80's. We didnt eat out except special occasions. My mom would buy me a chicken sandwich from hardees as a treat before scouts from time to time. My Aunt would invite us out to eat catfish a couple of times a year. My dad would treat us to hotdogs on his weekend but thats what dads do when they only have you every few weekends. Its crazy I eat out more a week than we did in a year. My kids think nothing of it

I am trying to teach my niece how to budget her money. When handling her receipts for a month, I was stunned to discover how much she spent on outside or fast food. I told her she was going to have to learn how to cook.

Macon's restaurants have lost their minds with pricing.

I usually eat at home before going "out to eat."

Nowadays we have this for an order at 5 Guys for one meal. Nasty ass grease burgers. Not mine, but it's been goin viral as they say and saw it on the news last night.
