you got a ‘dipped’ for a nickel, I had to pay 25 cents for a dipped cone.
When I was a kid you could get a nickel for doing chores like washing windows for neighbors. I would take that nickel and buy a cone dipped in chocolate from the Dairy Queen. It took about 45 minutes to walk there but it was worth every step.
I must be a lot older than you. We also got 5 of those little wax coke bottles filled with syrup for a penny. It’s funny how well you remember that stuff.
