Hi Lluis,

I seldom drink coffee away from home, but I suspect our current price is 
about the same as yours.  But, I remember when coffee, and soft drinks, 
could be bought for 5 cents.

When I was in Elementary School, in the mid-1930s, I paid 10 cents for 
my school lunch, which consisted of a hamburger and a drink.
