Ten Double Bubble long or 15 Double Bubble regular pieces.

(Actually, that comes to $1.06 in Lancaster, but you get the idea.)

10-15 years ago you could buy 1 Leberkässemmel for about 10 Schilling, which would be about what 1$ is right now.

But now even a Leberkässemmel already costs about 1.80€, or even 2€, which is 2-3 times as much as it was 10-15 years ago ...

You surely mean a Fleischkäsesemmel, don't you Tender? Tongue

For one Euro you get certain Ice-creams in the supermarket, and you get certain limo's and cokes for 1€ - 1,10€ I guess, which is both narrowly less than 1$ (maybe 95c, I think)

Oh... Yeah. I kind of confused it. I thought 1$ = ~1,20€, but it's the other way round, you're right.
So then you get nothing for 1$ here, at least nothing I can think of.

Ah, the McChicken. Perfect for the days when I'm too lazy to bring lunch to work but too cheap to buy actual lunch.

You can get a delicious and refreshing can of Arizona iced tea.

Don't you live in NYC?  There is one dollar pizza all over the place.  2 Bros is the big one dollar pizza chain from what it seems.  They probably have 10 locations around Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Yes, which is why I ask- I am baffled- the cheapest pizza around here is $2.50/slice.

There's a dollar slice on 116th and Fredrick Douglass. It's a Kennedy Fried Chicken, but they sell $1 pizza too.

They were everywhere when I worked in downtown Brooklyn over the summer though.
