What could $10 buy years ago? What can it buy now?

[King Belieal]

Inflation has affected the entire world and the value of money is dropping everyday. What could one purchase with $10 some few years ago? What can $10 buy now? Can you see the huge difference in value of money overtime?

Let's say three years ago, $10 dollars could buy 5 yards of a fabric but it can only buy two max now.

Yes ago this amount was enough to cook something that would last for a week plus, today it is not even to cook something that would last the whole family for five days.

In two years back, $10 would be able to cook two good pots of meals for a family. It would struggle to cook a pot for a single person today.
