As an Air Force "brat" during that time period I could take a date to the BX (think department store) for a cheeseburger Deluxe (included fries), a coke, a double feature movie and, of course, candy from the lobby. Total cost? = less than $2. I worked at the base commissary (grocery store) after school as a bagboy for "tips only" and would earn $5-$10 a day. As a bagboy, I remember that $100 worth of groceries would fill up 5-6 large shopping carts.Paradise Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02668266221623363777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-53366644476005961212011-08-26T19:07:43.632-05:002011-08-26T19:07:43.632-05:00I have not words...other than 'thank you.'...I have not words...other than 'thank you.'<br /><br />absolutely wonderful....the sandwich lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00881704107781311572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-10596745184063910112011-08-26T18:51:55.853-05:002011-08-26T18:51:55.853-05:00Love this story!Love this story!Kirstinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14678017356955052852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-79109184804828711932011-08-26T16:15:47.228-05:002011-08-26T16:15:47.228-05:00I love it..........would be on my list to grab als...I love it..........would be on my list to grab also!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-78880004679213033292011-08-26T16:14:17.607-05:002011-08-26T16:14:17.607-05:00I remember they always used to leave each other no...I remember they always used to leave each other notes, all the time I spent there I'd help with the babysitting kids, I'd go into a drawer and there would be a note from grandpa saying "I love you". I would take the note out and hand it to grandma and keep going while she smiled at the note. I took this up with my mom I would slip one in her work papers or checkbook, not knowing when she would find it. And someday I plan to do it with my husband. <br />Brandiblueyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11732924949024942176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-84766213502125585292011-08-26T16:03:37.739-05:002011-08-26T16:03:37.739-05:00Beautiful story, Lori.
