9 Depression-Era Habits That Still Beat Inflation in 2026

My grandmother never once used the word "inflation." She used the word "Tuesday," and she had a way of handling it that didn't need a headline to tell her prices were climbing. She simply noticed, quietly, and adjusted without ever making a production of it. I went looking through what actually got her family through the worst economic years this country has ever seen — not the dramatized version, but the small, unglamorous daily habits nobody thought to write down because they seemed too ordinary to matter. In this video, I'm sharing 9 of them that I've genuinely put back into my own life this year, and every single one still works, nearly a hundred years later, against a completely different kind of rising cost. 👉 These are things that work for me — always use your own good judgement.
