Inflation! - tommag - 07-29-2025
While looking at ammo cans at Coleman's surplus I stumbled on this container.

I have an older version I purchased for $80 back in the eighties. Mine is an inch wider and 2" deeper with 2 carrying handles. It's a great container but $250 for one?

Prices have soared in the past couple of years on many items I look at. No big deal but, I noticed at Walmart today at the self-checkout, those very small (regular - sized) Snickers are 1.56. A small container of gum was 5.00+. Incredible. I don't see how the avg working stiff with a kid or two even comes close to making it.
