I remember when the standard Coke size was a 6 oz. bottle, large was 10 oz. and there was a 16 oz. King-size bottle. The 6 oz. bottle was a nickel.
Penny candy cost only a penny.
Candy like Squirrel Nut Zippers, Mary Janes (I'm sure they would pull my fillings out today), Tootsie Rolls, Pixy Stix, Candy Cigarettes, Wax Lips, Atomic Fireballs, Sugar Babies, Sugar Daddies, Slo Pokes, Turkish Taffy, Bit O' Honey, peanut butter kisses, wax bottles, Chick-o-sticks, Black Cows, Charleston Chews, Dum Dum Pops, Bazooka Joe Bubblegum (with a comic strip inside), Oh, Henry! candy bars, and Cracker Jacks (when they had real prizes inside that you could choke on),
