Older than dirt, I really remember the ringer washers . got my right arm caught in the ringer. I remember bread being 6 loaves for a $1 and hamburger was .23 per pound and the gas was .15 per gallon unless there was a gas war then it was.09-.12 per gallon. When my Mom retired (after working 17 yrs. for the same co) she was making $1.60 per hr. My grandmother got the first tv in the family and it had a 12'' screen. We watched Boston Blackie,all the old cowboy showes. Mom would roll my hair on Sat.morning and she used bobbie pins, no curlers. Ahhhh the good old days. Thanks for the memories.
