According to the History Channel series, Nathan’s won by selling hot dogs @ 5 cents vs Feltman’s dogs @ 10 cents. It was before my time but wages then were a dollar a day.

I do remember when hot dogs were 20 cents ea, and a slice of pizza was 15 cents. Maybe not the good old days, just cheaper times in our lives.
