PROMISES
Promises used to be things you usually looked forward to.
Now they are things you never forget because they were reneged on (applies mainly to political statements)!

FREE
Free used to mean there was no charge involved and the offer was devoid of any commitment from the receiver.
It now means the cost is already included in the price and/or requires extensive reading of small words which state all the implications and limitations which actually apply!
