i had a double scoop cone of Pecan Praline, for $2.50:B
$2.50 :h Back in the fifties we could get locally made hand-dipped ice cream for a nickle a scoop. Oh, also we had had a water cooled Coke machine that gave you an 8 oz bottle for a nickle.
Even considering normal inflation these products are very overpriced thise days. Few people pay much attention but rather just pull out the plastic. Its no wonder many of these things have become so expensive and the majority of the population is carrying considerable debt.
That $2.50 cent cone probably cost most of you $3.00.
