ice cream truck coming down the street playing tunes. The kids came running out of their homes like ants waiting on the side for the truck to pull up and stop. A quarter bought a HUGE soft ice cream cone

We had quarter movies all day long at the Opera House
or the Strand in downtown Newport, R.I. With 50 cents
you could get a bag of popcorn and a bag full of penny
candy (remember 3 for a penny wax lips??? at the store
next door)and stay in those movies all day long and not
have to pay again as long as you stayed in there!
Anyone know where you can still get penny candy????
