Could you guess how much a grocery basket cost 30 years ago?
by•
I've been working on a little experiment called Time Traveler Receipt.
The idea is simple: you're shown a grocery receipt from a random year in the past, and you have to guess how much the items cost.
You might be shopping in 1990, 2005, or even further back.
The game calculates how close your guesses are and lets you compare prices across different time periods.
I built it because I find it fascinating how much everyday prices have changed over the years.
I'd love to hear what you think:
How close do you think you could get to 1990 grocery prices?
Which decade would you like to travel back to?
What would make this game more fun?

Feedback is genuinely appreciated!
