Forgive me for turning in to "Old Man Dunken" but do you remember when you could get a candy bar and a soda for under a buck?   Those days are long gone.  If you purchased both now you'd probably spend close to three bucks if not more!

I found an interesting article on whoonearth.net about what one dollar can get you in other countries-

For example, in Egypt you can buy you a meal of spaghetti, rice, lentils and onions, you can get a 45-minute foot massage in the Philippines, an espresso in Portugal, or 3 pairs of sandals in Vietnam.
