    Toys-Я-Us should be selling them cheap if they have any left.

    68 cents then was two thirds of an ounce of silver. Ten bux now is two thirds of an ounce of silver. The difference is that you only had to earn 74 cents to have 68 cents to spend, but now you have to earn almost twenty bux to take home ten.
