Our treat was getting new shoes and socks or hats for our dolls to go with the outfits that my mom would make, or a new coloring book or paper dolls.
I'd forgotten about the balloons and popping them. What a fun memory. Thanks. :lol: :lol:
Thanks for the memories. I, too, remember busting those balloons for what my banana split was going to cost. I can also remember after Woolworth's left our town, there was a little drug store around the corner I go to every Saturday. There I'd always have one scoop of butter pecan ice cream with caramel sauce on it. Mmmm good!!! Thanks for putting a smile on my face!!! :lol: :lol:
