Today is my 35th high school class reunion and I thought it would be fun to look at prices from 1975! My senior memory book had a page titled 'Prices Today'. It said "You'll get a kick out of this page in the years ahead. Go ahead, list the prices you paid for some of the more common items listed below." I bet the writers never imagined it would be posted on a blog in 2010!!
Hamburger: $.65
French Fries: $50
Coke: $.30
Movie at theater: $.75
Favorite magazine-Seventeen: $.75
Jeans: $10.00
Gasoline: 57.9 per gallon
Record Album: $6.98
8 Track Tape: $5.98
School Dance: $2.00
Bread: $.65
Candy Bar: $.15
I would love to have the movie, gas and candy bar prices back!!
