$1.99 (haven't a clue how long ago)
$2.19
$2.59
$2.99
$3.79 (what I paid a few weeks ago)

Many years ago I went into a building supply store and picked up a box of nails that had probably six or eight price tags on top of each other. I can't remember now what those prices were, but I do remember peeling them up to see. It's insane how prices can jump over the smallest of things. Just look at gas prices right now. Icon_rolleyes

Welcome to the New World!  Just about the only thing in my life that has not drastically increased with inflation is my retirement income.  Primarily why I went into N scale. Icon_rolleyes
