a Hamburger at MacDonalds was .69 cents and I was always sad because I couldn't afford the extra .10 cents for the Cheeseburger.

When i was in kindergarten in '72 my mother would give me a dime to stop and get "penny candy" at a mom and pop store every Friday after school. The amount of candy you could buy for a dime was incredible.

I remember the days when Dad would give me the money plus 25 cents to get him a pack of smokes and the quarter would buy me a pop plus a chocolate bar.

/Of course, when mom found out that I got Dad a pack of smokes, then the fun really started :lol:
