I remember 19 cents a gallon, AND you got a free glass too! That would have been my high school years.

While outside on the turnpike
They got this new hit tune
Where thrills become as cheap as gas
And gas as cheap as thrills

$0.04.9 in Sharon PA in 1962. Gas war, and you got a set of four tea glasses with a 10 gallon fill up. Currently $1.83 in Upstate SC.
