you could fill a lunch sack full of candy for 10 cents back then ,we used to hit a spot with a dime and come out with a really nice assortment of 3 to 5 for a penny candy
think I spent most of it on sporting goods though , could get lots of line and hooks and sinkers and etc with that kind of cash back when .
When I was a kid, I cut grass with a push mower for my cash. if I got $5 for cutting a yard, I thought the cops would come looking for me for stealing!
Most times I only got $2-3 for front and back. That was the late 60s.
