Self serve....Swifty...45 cents or so in 1966

Ciggies were 25-30 cents a pack

When I started driving in 1971 gas was still 50-65 cents

Cigs were 50 cents or so

Then the oil embargo....and everything went up

33 cents was pretty much the standard price for regular when I was a kid. I remember seeing a gas station down south in 1969 advertising 19 cents a gallon but since I didn’t stop I don’t know if that was real or not.
