You didn't have to wait in the post office for 20 minutes with cues of people just to buy some stamps 
I remember when stamps were 33c 
For that matter, when you could actually give them 33c, as we had 1c and 2c coins 
I remember 1c and 2c lollies at the deli, so 50c for a mixed bag could pretty much get you giggly and stupid like you were on speed.
Awesome
(Then again now that half the kids seem to have ADHD they get the same for free from the GovCo 
)
What do you want stamps for when you have email?
Post offices are for sending packages and collecting ebay purchases.
I can still remember back when 9/11 happend.Shocking.
I dont know what date it happend though.
I remember when I could get a haircut for 7/6 (OK 75c in today's money)
I also remember spending farthings.
What I don't remember is what happened yesterday!
I remember when people who could not afford a TV set would take their lounge chairs down to the footpath in front of the local electrical shop at night time and watch the TV in the window of the shop.
Television came to Australia in 1956.
I remember leaving money in the bank for years and it actually grew in value.
Now it's absorbed by fees.
I remember (in some chronological order)
My dad buying his first 'new' car - HQ Monaro $4k.
I remember wagging school to go to the local shop to play space invaders.
When home interest rates were 18%.
I remember when nightclub entry required a collar, black pants & 'dress' shoes.
I remember going home from work to check my messages on the answering machine.
I remember my business bank manager visiting me regularly at my workshop just to check if things were going ok?
I remember when I moved here...I thought it was the windiest place I'd ever lived in...
How things have changed?!
I remember filling the tank of my first V8 and fuel the previous night had jumped to 34cents a litre. I thought - this will be civil war!
we didnt have mobile phones, and people would have to leave messages or ring back!!
