In Pulp Fiction (1994) John Travolta's character freaks out over the "5$ milkshake".
In 2025 a chocolate shake is 5.49 at the sonic near me. I thought that was expensive but compared to this thread apparently inflation on milkshakes hasn't been to bad. Though I'm pretty sure you can get a $10 shake if you start asking them to add every kind of diabetes candy into it.
There's a fast food chain where I live called Nifty Fifty's ('50s themed of course). They have "dessert milkshakes" for $9.85 - basically shakes with a whole extra dessert blended in - and if you get it malted you're at $10.50. TBF they're really fucking good milkshakes, but $10 is ridiculous.
