I haven't had a banana split in YEARS. I still remember my first one- my Great Aunt bought for me. That thing was BIG,:shock: too big for a 6 yo to eat. And for 39 cents!!??:w00t:







There we go, showing our age....:doh:

25 cents for a milk shake, now they are about four to five bucks...:shock:

Thinking about it, gas was about a quarter a gallon then too, now it is about four to five bucks...:pat:
 
These prices look pretty good, compared to nowadays. I wonder though, What was Woolworth paying their employees, back in 1950?? :whistling:
 
I can remember going to Rexall's with my grams in Terre Haute, Indiana when I was like 6 or so.
They had a soda fountain there. Cokes.. chocolate Cokes (with chocolate syrup)... big in the tall glass with the red striped paper straw.
A whopping 10 cents!
 
I remember riding my bike to Woolworth and stealing candy. I was a perp when I was 7. :ohmy::eek: I got caught too. I cant even begin to understand why I did that.

Don't feel bad, I stole a handful of grapes at the grocery store when I was little and tried to cram them in my mouth before Mom caught me.
She said "what ARE you eating?"
I said "Nffffmmmm"
Then she made me open my mouth.
It was a rosary on my knees in the bedroom in front of my statue of St. Therese of Lisieux and confession on Saturday.
To this day, I can't stand grapes haha!
