Those cheap beers would do a number on you..miss those days.
Fadingpain Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 What I notice these days is the cost of a large pizza from a local pizza place. It's like $18 or something?! It's funny, but when I think of ordering a pizza from my youth, I think of it costing like $5.95.

swnybillsfan Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 i can remember our local grocery store having a "party deal", which was a sheet pizza along with a bucket of 50 wings for $29.99. now i think you may need a small loan and a cosigner for the same order.

Expand yeah, this was a few years ago (15yrs?). this was our go-to for all our kids' birthday parties. the worst part is, as the prices went up, the quality seemingly kept going down.

Expand the place we always went to was our hometown grocery store, which, way back when, had an amazing deli/bakery. great donuts. fantastic fresh baked cookies and rolls. and wonderful subs. not to mention the pizza and wings, and at one point, the best fish fry in town. i still find myself yearning for some of the old favorites.

A small order is 6, but I had 2 left over. Like Bloddy Mary’s, wings are great in moderation. I can’t do the volume thing. I went to the same place I took a friend from Florida when he was visiting. We each had a slice and wanted a few wings too. I said 10 was good, since I only wanted a couple. He said he’d like leftovers, so we got 20. I had my two, and there were no leftovers. I’m not shocked that he’s gained 50 pounds since I moved away.
