Grew up in the 60’s and 70’s.. I remember McDonald’s had a hamburger, fries and a coke and you got change back from a buck. I think you could get a cheeseburger and still get change back.. Saturday matinees were 45 cents, we always snuck candy in from the drug store across the street. You could get popcorn but not a coke, or coke but not popcorn. 55 cents didn’t go far at the movie candy counter. A box of good n plenty or junior mints was 50 cents..

A box of good n plenty or junior mints was 50 cents..

Now if you're lucky you can get one of those and a little change back from your $10.

McDonald’s was kind of as treat for us, we only got it when we were traveling out of town.

Saturday matinees

---

In the early 1950s it was 25 cents for two movies, previews, cartoons, and a news reel. Between the movies there was a drawing of tickets. If you had the winning ticket you got to stick you hand into a jar full of coins and keep what ever you could bring out (usually pennies and nickles).
