If you collected $.97 worth of pop bottles, how would you spend it?

[ohiosmith]

I'd go to the Monster Movie Marathon at the Southern theater this Saturday ($.25), get a large popcorn and soda ($.35), and a box of Junior Mints ($.05) and have enough left for a malt on the way home.

Oh, to be 12 again!

:popcorn:

3. On some pop?

That sounds divine.
As for the prices, you must have been in a coma for the last 50 years. Things have changed quite a bit since then. Glad you were able to pick up the new fangled email stuff so quickly. ;)

4. Oh..Man..I remember those days.

The "Plaza" theater in St.Petersburg used to let in Kids on Saturday morning if they brought a Nestle Candy bar Wrapper.
What a Deal...Buy the candy...wrap it in wax paper and get into the show for free AND..watch 3 Films..4 Cartoons... SIGH...

Now ..it's Popcorn and a small drink and small candy.....
"That will be $8.75 Sir"...Fuck! :)

5. Go to the little store

and get some wax candy that held some colored sweet water. I have no idea what it was called, and now I would think it would be yucky. I used to get the pop bottles from behind the fraternaty houses (I grew up on a college campus). Learned early to sort the soda bottles from the beer bottles.

6. A fifty cent Saturday

I was allowed to walk the several blocks to the Five Points Theater in broad daylight.
15 cents admission.
10 cents for popcorn, another dime for a Coke, and a nickel for a Hershey bar.
10 cents for the mama-mandated bus ride home after dark.

I'd watch the double-feature cowboy shoot-em-up through twice.
Use the bus fare for another Coke or popcorn during my second viewing.
Walk home in the dark and NEVER tell mama.
scamp

8. I'd buy myself the sketch pad and pencil I'd been eying.

Then maybe some candy.
