Yep!

Cokes REALLY WERE a nickel!

And, at sometime when you were holding it, you looked at the bottom of the bottle to see where the coke bottle was from!

I liked to put salted peanuts in my coke, and drink coke and eat peanuts at the same time!

Default Steve!

How about GOO GOO CLUSTERS and NECCO SKY BARS?

Cokecola was a real treat for us as kids....although we called everything "a coke". Most times momma and daddy could only afford to get us RC cokecola and it came in a 16 ounce bottle.

What's funny is you can get odd old candies at "The Cracker Barrel" resteraunts. (Modern day Howard Johnson's). Also at the Commisary on Parris Island I found a big tin can full of GOO GOO Clusters. If you can post pics of Goo Goo's and a SkyBar for me, I'd be grateful!

Merry Christmas!

Pack
