I grew up mostly in s.California and remember walking over to my cousins house 2 miles away barefoot. We'd see how many pop bottles(.03 for each)my aunt had for us to put in the wagon and take to the store to buy candy and soda pops.
Anyone recall the Helm's bakery trucks? They were yellow Chevy panel trucks and had lots of shelves built into them to hold all the baked goods for sale. I was born in 1957.
