$5 shake would cost $10 today....


$9.75 according to this site.

So that was pretty expensive. I checked and a double concrete at Shake shake is $6.75, a large shake at McDonalds is $3.

This was a real restaurant and theme restaurants always cost a bit more.

It did look good.

At my local diner a milkshake was nearly $4.00 in 1994. I never got why Vincent Vega made such a big deal over a $5.00 dollar shake.
