Still have mine from boot camp C Rations summer of 82Oh yeah! Well this doesn't use electricity, takes up very little space and fits in the palm of your hand. It works every time! After 47 years, I still have mine. When I go, it will be buried with me.
It’s Friday fam, y’all make today your beeotch and have fun doin it.
I worked at a gas station while in HS which gave out the stamps for all purchases, so if the women did not get their stamps, you had to make a extra trip back to the office to get 'em because they were not leaving until they got their stamps. My mother collected 'em as well, and I never got anything from the "stamp store" even tho I had to help fill the books. LOL
Growing up, I worked at my Dad's gas station. Never issued stamps, but I remember glasses, stickers and even a cardboard model of the Apollo 11 Lunar Module. My Mom collected green stamps. I think she and your mother may be sisters. I got nothing...and was forced to liked it.

The P38 Can Opener: WWII's "Other" P-38
The P-38 can opener, sometimes called the "penny pocket" opener, was used for much more than opening C-Rations by WWII soldiers.

Since your posting up old stuff, this is sitting my my shop. Sticker price on pack of smokes is 35 cents. Everything works as should and has all the labels for changing brands out.
When I was in high school, you could grind the edges off pennies and buy a pack for three cents.
That’s not a teapot. That means a Jeanie will grant you 3 wishes!

So, truly, the answer to the question of life, the universe, and everything is 42. (Thanks to Douglas Adams, RIP.)
He looks 46. Just like every other 36 yo in 1971.
anything negative about those S&H green stamps was strictly forbidden in mixed company.
You want to gripe about the stamps? Looky here, I just found another jar and a bunch of empty booklets. Now you can gripe and be productive.
I hated those things. But if there was one running loose in the parking lot of the Piggly Wiggly you can bet your bottom dollar I was sent to retrieve it. To this day I have no idea how that business model worked. Who needed glasses? That’s what those fancy jelly jars were for.
