Yes, goods are cheaper, it's all crap being made in China and of course plastics changed the game. As for food, milk went up, but I can still by chicken and steaks for $2 or $3 # on sale. What was dinner in the $70's? $12 for an entree and $2.25 for a beer? Now it's about $18 and $3.50. Or go to Applebee's for the 2 for $20 and $2 beers.
