    Vintage Grocery Ad

    I remember going to the football with 5/- (that is 50 cents today) and that was enough for admission, a pie and a drink and a packet of Turf filters 4 in a pack. Petrol was 20 pence a gallon . But it is all relative, wages were 1076 pounds per year . Now I'm 70 so it was a little while ago.
