It's the year 2000. Spend $20

Postby Strauss » April 1st, 2010, 11:04 am

10 years ago and you have a dog in your hand.

Buy as much as you could for $20

- gas to take you from Arima to South and back.
- two good burgers
- KFC, fries, drink, biscuit and coleslaw
- a wet head
- 2 packs of cigs, 8 mints
- 5 carib/stag

Bake and shark was $8-$12 depending on who you went by.
And was twice the size as it was now.

Oh... A 1/2 Black Label $20 before it "really drinking good"

In 2000, final year UWI. 20 bucks for the week to travel to and from curepe. I would walk from curepe junction to appartment in UWI to save the extra two dollars each way. That four dollars was doubbles money.
