I never drank a Frosty Root Beer from a can. they were tin cans and not aluminum.LOL! I've been there, right down to the paper route! I still remember fans all over, and the day we got our first wall unit. I can see it now!
Back then, you had to have a church key to open a can.
Bottle deposit was a penny and soon went up to two cents.
I hustled bottles and thought I would never be able to spend all that money when it went to three cents. It was like getting a huge raise.
Weeded flower beds for 50cents and mowed yards for three bucks. I hustled as many yards as I could till I had so many I had to get a partner. Paper route was the worst job ever and the only one that made money was the distributor which taught me to keep really good records so he had a harder time fucking me out of my money.
Second hand and homemade clothes were what I got to wear.
No A/C but we did have a couple of fans.
I will never forget when we finally got a window unit for the living room.
I guess some people would call that "white Privilege" but to me it was just a way to survive when your parents did not have the money to take care of the wants and could barely take care of the needs.. Originally Posted by The2Dogs

Hey Mike the inbred chimp, why would I want to put a lie in a true story?
Yes I did walk to and from school but it was neither 5 miles or uphill both ways.
Not many hills in Houston. You should check your geography out a little better. Originally Posted by The2Dogs
