I’m thinking even for cases of like shrinkflation.

I saw an article about potentially cheaper RAM here, so it got me curious if things ever really get better on occasion.

    Coffee perhaps. I think previous generations were more apt to just get a tub of Folgers or Maxwell House and not care too much about what they were drinking. Then third wave coffee shops started emphasizing quality, process, and flavor nuances. These days, you can find specialty coffee in most areas or get high-quality beans delivered and brew it yourself.

      i think starbucks started the trend, and then better coffe chains became available. and then maybe coffee shops, that arnt in gentrified areas(the ones in these areas often go under very quickly).

      plus french presses, and makers are cheap now.

        starbucks didnt invent cappuccinos. that was established italian coffee which made coffee decent again. that started happening well before starbucks. they just made an american specific chain based off it

      I got a nice local shop which was part of a chain but the manager bought out the location and has been doing pretty well.
