Yup, I remember the 4 & 5 finger lids for $15-$20. Keys wrapped in butcher paper with seeds & stems. Everyone could role. Joints were always passed around & please don't bogart that joint. Pipes made of plumbing fixtures. The new guy had to drink the bong water as a joke. I still have my 8 track tapes & Mini 8 player! In fact I have a 8 track recorder. Made my own tapes recorded from albums. I have an old Valveline can stash can, one of the 1st ones made I guess. HS dress code was that your hair could not be over your collar or over your ears.

Ah, the memories you're reminding me of...

Yes, the penny candy and 5 cent candy bars. And the scandal when candy bars went up to 10 cents. Same thing with a bottle of pop.

Lowest gas price I remember was 24 cents.

5 cent stamps, yeah. And people upset when they raised it to 6 cents.

I remember riding my bike all over creation. Riding to Dairy Queen for a hot dog and a Mr. Misty and have change back from my dollar.

Pull tabs from beer cans littering the sides of the streets.

Toyotas and Hondas were cheap little tin can cars that no one wanted.

The only computer in High School was twenty feet long and took all semester to program a silly little game. Punched tape and punch cards.

Arcades that had rows of pinball machines - not video games.

Being happy with two TV stations to choose from, even if you had to sit at just the right place in the room to get a decent signal. And the static that you'd start to see on the TV long before you started to hear and see the coming thunderstorm.

Yeah....the days when a dime bag was actually $10. Buy a nice sized joint off someone for a dollar.

Then the 'high priced' Sinse bud appeared. Damn. $20 for a dime bag? It better be good stuff! *chuckles*

... someone pumped your gas and cleaned the windshield
... Mex was 30-40 bux a Quarter pound
... you planted those first seeds just to see what would happen???
... (Darn, I forgot the others)(Wait, I got it) you could remember things, when you were younger
... "Coke" had the little 6 1/2 ounce glass bottles, and they were just enough, and a dime (?) in a machine

I remember when parents used to be in charge, not lead around by their retarded children

When all candies at the corner store where under 5 cents.

when you could talk to girls not get their email.

every kid under 10 in our neighbourhood(like 30 kids) played in our huge backyard of a forest and we played real games like war with immatation guns. Not like today where high schoold kids bring real guns to school and shoot each other

Remember when we walked to our friends house after school, elementary school. now it's like play dates or nothing, which is really for mothers who both like watching opera together.

I remember when there where not so many trashy gold diggers. lol lol lol

remember when you could drive your 350 engine and it would cost you pennies a week. now we all have honda's which are 1/10 the gas and cost mega dollars per fill up.

remember when you did not flinch at the pice of gas, now it is to difficult to look at what $20 gets today ie a couple of days.

remember when the manager used to fix their employees screw ups now they just back up their employees no matter how retarded the mistake.

when planes had com trails not chem trails, the police tried ta help instead of milk you for money/fines... ta hike the desert with a .44 was the norm not a reason ta call the law.... ice cream was comin when ya heard the music.... roman candles were for tag.... m-80's were REAL...... grama lived at the house...... mom was home.... being late fer supper was my only fear........

[Hank Hemp]

I remember when it was fun. No thieves, NG copters, Some cops were cool, and everybody smoked reefer at a concert(not Show) and stood up to hide gate crashers. I was never a Hippiee cause I was a hard core Nam dude freak. I remember being harassed for being a Nam vet by the pigs. You were considered a WPOD- white punk on dope, and they were right.

[Gypsy Nirvana]

when a good quarter ounce of Blond Lebanese Hash was 7 pounds sterling (about $14).....

.....when a loaf of bread was 1 and five-pence halfpenny (about 10 cents)

....when you could have a good weekend and go to 2 good clubs in London (Marquee and the Nashville), see some great bands.... and still have change from a tenner ($15)

.....when I didn't spend half of my life in the virtual world of the internet.....lol

[JamieShoes]

I remember when polos were a penny, a bag of chips was 5p and in the summer ..dog shit turned white....
