Larger bills started being removed from circulation in the 60s ($500 and $1000). I think as we get older at some point we tend to sort of lock in prices, or what we think something "should" cost. Dad told me cigarettes were a nickel a pack (from ships stores) in the Navy. I think maybe a dime in the civilian market. I recall soda from a vending machine was $.50 for quite a while.

A $100 note used to be called "Alaska Ten" up there, now I know how they felt. The Euro is issued in €500 which is at least realistic.
