 I pumped gas at my grandfathers station/store when gas was 33.3 cents a gallon. A 26 oz. soft drink was 10 cents....5 cents if you returned the bottle. My first real summer job when I was 16 I was making 5 dollars a day...tax free!!!!!! :)

 Here's a pretty cool little read on the subject. What I really like to know is why are the 50's always a benchmark? Why not the 40's or 60's? Wouldn't those eras or decades be a better comparison since they were mired by wars (economic obligations) like today?

Also wtf are "Lean Oscar Meyer sweet MORSELS" and why were they so freaking expensive?

 Born in 1955 I never paid attention to prices till 1971.. I recall gas was 25 cents a gal. Loaf of bread about 50 cents..Cigarettes were 60 cents a pack, 16 oz soda about 25 cents. ...That's about all I can recall..
