    4. Odie - for the life of me I can't remember what they were at the PX in '66-'68. I do remember that I used to buy 5 cartons (not packs) at a time: G-d forbid I should run out (and yes! I was that addicted to "Marbles").

  9. I remember when it was one silver dime. And you could trick the machine by coating your dime in mercury and using it. It wuold slip thru the mechanism and you have your dime back and get a pop!

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
