#12: Just Popping Down to the Shops
You know you’re in for a wild ride when you stumble upon a somewhat ancient yet effective shopping list from 1863 in your basement. Who knew grocery shopping was so different back then? Instead of heading to the nearest supermarket, people had to make do with whatever they could find at the local market.
And can we talk about the handwriting on this list? Was calligraphy a required class back then, or what? But the real question is, did they have coupons back then? Can you imagine the thrill of saving a penny on a gallon of milk? Whatever the case may be, this shopping list is a true testament to the ingenuity of our ancestors and their unwavering love for food.
