I must be vintage, too. Allergic to granulated Tide so had to ask a store employee to get me some Cheer detergent so an ambulance wouldn't have to be called & I needed whole milk because the Tide is at the end of the aisle by the dairy case. I had written down exactly what brands & size I wanted to purchase. His reply to my note was, "I'm sorry ma'am, I cannot read cursive." OMGoodness! I still remember my mother writting an "r" that resembled half an "n" with a swoop on the end. I'm probably prehistoric!
