Haha...ueah...I am old too. Remember pneumatic tubes?
“Remember pneumatic tubes?”
totally ... the big, multi-story, downtown department stores used them ... all transactions were performed in a central counting room ... money go up, change come back ... they made a bonging sound when they arrived back at the sales counters, and there was a constant bonging though the main floor amongst the general hubbub of thronging shoppers ... not too much different than the clanging that one-armed bandits make every time they paid out at the casinos ...

Our Woolworth’s had them.
I remember those, they really sucked😁
