Did these desirable items cost more in 1974 or 1994?
Was a microwave more in the Seventies or Nineties?
It seems as if the cost of most things is always going up. Especially a cup of coffee. If you look back over time, certain necessities like gas, milk and movie tickets (look, it's a necessity for us) have continually risen over time.
But that's not the case for all things. Technology can sometimes get cheaper over time, for example.
Below, we've gathered similar items from the years 1974 and 1994. Guess which ones had the higher sticker prices.
Just to be clear, we're talking about the price tag at the time, and we are not adjusting for inflation. See if you can remember what they cost!

$50 in 1970 was equivalent to $190.98, so a $50 jacket still "cost more" than a jacket for $150 in 1994 in terms of actual spending power.
Nine out of 11. But is this really true? I mean, there's inflation, and the value of a dollar back in 1974 isn't the same as a dollar in those later years.
