OH yeah! The night I got married, March 29, 1969, we stopped for gas on our way out of town. It was 29 cents a gallon. That service station went out of business and stood empty for years with that 29 cent price on its marquee for a long long time. What memories!!! I worked at a grocery store then while I went to college. I remember some of the regular prices because we didn't scan anything then. Lettuce was 9 cents a head, bread was 19 cents a loaf, canned food was often 5 or 6 for a dollar. Amazing!
