@reinventingwithnina: In Guy’s 1915 ledger, bread, sugar, and butter all cost 25 cents. At first, that sounded incredibly cheap. Then I remembered that Guy only earned about $9 per week. That made me wonder: Was food really cheaper in 1915, or did groceries take a larger share of a family’s income than they do today? I did the math, and the answer surprised me. 💬 What do you think—did families spend a larger or smaller percentage of their income on groceries in 1915 than they do today? ✨ Curiosity Never Retires #1915 #History #FamilyHistory #OldLedger #VintageFinds
