The price of instant ramen.
I just bought 90 Mama instant ramen Duck flavored and 90 chicken flavored for 83.58 EUR including shipping. That’s 46.5 cents per instant ramen. I think that’s actually slightly cheaper than my Mama order a few years ago. I don’t think, the economy is going great in general.
On the store shelf Maruchan instant noodles are a buck a pop. Shit’s broken.
The reduced-to-clear stickers getting less cheap

I’m not sure I follow. Is this, like, Nerf/paintball/airsoft, or do you mean Sharper Image?
Or like jet skis and four wheelers
Children? In this economy?
