I was a young bride in the seventies and was thinking back to costs then .... does anyone remember .... ? Item 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 Postage Stamp 0.06 0.08 0.08 0.08 0.10 0.10 Bread 0.24 0.25 0.25 0.27 0.28 0.28 Milk 1.32 1.32 1.33 1.36 1.39 1.40 Gas 0.40 0.44 0.52 0.65 0.53 0.57 Car 2,500 2,700 3,100 3,200 3,500 3,800 Couple of other quick memories .... bought bread was a special treat .... home made bread was common in households. I do not ever remember going to a restaurant ... the odd time burgers were bought at the drive-in restaurants just as a treat. Sunday drives were looked forward to and speaking of postage stamps it was delightful to pick up your mail at the post office and meet up with your friends and neighbours. Attachments:
