Well, this would have been in the late '60s.

Friday was payday, and I'd stop at Woolco and get a brick of 22 LR for $4.95 (don't remember the brand but could have been Remington or maybe a generic).

Gas was 30 cents per gallon, and beer was around a dollar a six pack. Non-premium beer was 99 cents per six pack and your "premium" brands (Bud or Schlitz) were something like $1.15 to $1.25 per six pack.

Add it up: $4.95 + $(4 * 0.99) + $(3 * 0.30) = $9.81

Cool. I miscalculated the prices in the 60’s on .22 in my head. They were just as you remember! I recall they reached 2 cents per round about the late 70’s, a decade later.

I even remember gas as low as 22 cents per gallon.

I wasn’t buying beer so I cannot comment on that.

Good memory!

That’s a dang good deal. :-)
