Meme also shows inflation: Then, $10 would get you a heaping paper bag full. Now, $20 will get you a mostly empty plastic bag now. Plus you have to pay 8 cents for the bag (at least in WA state).

From age of 8 to 12 my “business partner”
(who was the same age) and I would spend many many Saturdays all day out along the local highways picking up bottles.. pop bottles were 3 cents and beer bottles were a penny.. never got an allowance (which was a Good thing) so if we wanted something we earned it.. best times and best lessons I could have had..
