Things You Can't Get Anymore

I still have my Frito Bandito eraser (mine is yellow) his hat is chewed just a little bit because Sister Innocent was a dull teacher.
And we have a drive-in theater too.
You could probably get a side of meth with your popcorn up there though.
At one time we had two XXX drive-ins.
We used to go just for fun, after all, it was the 70s and people/storylines were quite different and amusing to ridicule. Fun to watch the people in the other cars, too.

We're behind the times here. We have both drive-in theatres and IBC at the grocery store in 6 pack glass bottles. I love IBC Cream Soda.

I don't think Fred's having trouble finding his beverage of choice, but the bottle caps to re-seal them when not finishing off the entire bottle to insure they don't go flat til the next use.

We have a drive-in movie that also has a flea market on weekends and does very well at both.

I've got a good one for ya... Remember the Candy Cigarettes you could buy... Some where just hard sugar sticks with a red dot at the end but the ones I mean are the bubble gum ones with a wax wrapper and when you blew on it powdered sugar puffed out.

I actually saw them last year at a Candy shop in Canada, but I don't think you can get them in the States anymore. haha nothing like target marketing to children.

The good ole days.

You can't get people to put their dern shopping carts in the cart corral anymore. :banghead: You pushed the cart all around the store and all the way outside to your car, what is an extra few more feet? I kind of like the idea where I DON'T get five more dents in the side of my car, just because people are lazy.

Oven Cleaner with Lye.
how true that is....nowadays anytime they put NEW in big letters means it sucks MORE....either a smaller package, higher price or less performance.




I miss the Helms bakery trucks... with the long wood draws that pulled out the back and went for miles! All you had to do was put the blue and gold "H" sign in your window and they'd stop in front of your house and honk. Well, that not all you had to do, apparently you were suppose to have your mom permission... and money.
Those were so cool getting donuts and really fresh bread from the Helms man...

RC Draft Cola - Best soda I've ever tasted.

Frusen Glädjé ice cream - gourmet ice cream that was whipped prior to freezing, which gave it a lovely velvety texture. Quickly squashed by the likes of Häagen-Dazs and B&J.
