Back in the 70s-80s my parents didnt pay for cell phones, streaming services, more than one car, the entire family going to a restaurant together other than for a kids birthday, brands didnt matter for clothes or runners, multiple vacations a year didnt exist (not for us at least) Thats just a short list, Im sure theres a myriad of other things that can be listed.

We didnt go out to restaurants. Yeah we had two cars, but they both sucked.
