CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?

Thinking of our supermarkets today it is amazing to think of the following facts from the early 1900s:

  • Tuna was first put in cans to be sold on store shelves.
  • Sugar was 4 cents a pound.
  • Butter was 25 cents a pound.
  • Eggs were 14 cents a dozen.
I can remember as a young girl going with my grandma to a neighbors farm and buying eggs for some change. This was in the 1950s.
