“Then again I can remember the neighborhood bank paying 4 % on a passbook savings account.”
I recall a similar rate and depositing $500.00 for the (savings and loan) to sell me a digital calculator (add, subtract, multiply and divide PLUS a constant key) for only $99.99.
I bought the calculator and gave it to my parents as a gift. At the time that had a manual adding machine with a tape (paper) and a handle for each entry...
It was a significant discount at the time...
