Back in the 1958 we had a good snowstorm and we would go around asking people if they needed their sidewalk shoveled, and make a little money that went far for a kid in those days!
Alot of candy was two for a penny and soda was about 7 cents you know what I mean! I remember a few of us shoveling the corner store and each of us got a whole dollar! And the owner’s wife gave us a bowl of tomato soup and hot chocolate, and we were off around the neigborhood to find more work, then head home and come back out later on just to have a good snowball fight! Yea great memorys were make of this!
Ah, cheap sweets! Yes I remember going into sweet shops in the early 60s and spending very little and coming out with a huge bag of sweets. No wonder our teeth are all falling out…
Sounds like parts of the US need some kids to start shovelling up the snow again!
