They must have that all elusive inflation free $ and the even more elusive non-increasing costs on utilities, supplies, and other costs

I don’t doubt it. And I don’t understand it either!
I’ve started experimenting with boiling the frog slowly, and it seems to be unnoticeable. Was $3 for 4:30, then $3 for 4:16, then $3 for 4:00 in 6 months time. Going to keep inching my way to $3 for 3:00 in the next 12 months. I’ve observed the cash guys try to beat the buzzer and sometimes make another trip to the changer, the credit guys just spend more.

I also struggled with this for the past few years. This spring I went to $5 for 5 minutes. I'm in a town of 8000K. Granted, I'm the only SS in town. But I challenge you for the next three days, keep track of what you get for $5. It's not a lot. Not one complaint so far. Credit cards have gone up , and coins are down.
