How many of you younger guys (born before 1965) have experienced prices like these? This paper was printed in 1951. Tell us of your experiences.View attachment 13466
And of course, we had to have something to eat. Our family of five averaged $30.00 per month for items we consumed other than what we gardened, canned or slaughtered. Hog killing always came around on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and on Friday after it was fresh venison. Oh ,Happy Day! Anybody else care to share?
From the 1980's.
My '74 Chev. Five of us. Me, my friends Tim and Johnny, and both of their little brothers. Johnny took the picture. Tim with the beard, me with the clean face and long hair. Little brothers in the back with five dead bucks.
That was in the Book Cliffs. Which was a heckua long drive back then. Crammed me Tim and Johnny in the front, made the little brothers ride in the back the whole way. Tore a rear brake hard line off the axle and broke it recovering a deer. Had very minimal brakes the whole way home. When we stopped for gas in the first town, I fixed the brake by buying a Sharpie and blacking out the brake light on the dash .

Every time I look at that ad reminds me of why we refer to that era as "the good old days". 50 lbs of red potatoes for $1.59, amazes me when I buy vittles today!I would almost kill for 45 cent bacon
