What Could You Buy For a Nickel?

January 3, 2016 By Content Geek

Where once there were dime stores, now there are dollar stores. Whereas a penny could once buy you a delicious chocolate candy, it now affords you just a wish. There was even a time in which you could use a single nickel to see a movie, while today you’d need five of them to simply afford a packet of noodles. Due to myriad economic fluctuations, the worth of cold-hard cash has changed dramatically over the past century. This infographic by Ignite Spot Outsourced Accounting illustrates how the value of change has changed throughout the past 100 years. It also outlines what goods or services you could buy with a penny, nickel, dime, quarter, dollar coin or 10-dollar coin in each respective decade.
