I’m old enough to remember saying, “some day, bread will cost a dollar a loaf and gasoline will hit $.50 per gallon, cigarettes $.50 per pack”

I remember when a cigarette vending machine charged 30 cents a pack. As a high school senior, I enjoyed filling my Honda CB175 with premium gas at 25.9 cents per gallon. That was a price "war" between adjacent stations. Premium usually sold for 33 cents and was jacked up to 38 cents on holiday weekends.
