Cheap Twinkies

These sold for 12 cents in 1964. They were a great treat whenever there was some extra money - which was seldom. Milk was 29 cents a gallon.

I often came upon extra money by searching for, and returning empty bottles to the corner store. Back then, people were prolific litter bugs, and emptys could be found in bushes all over. Whenever I came upon a nice "income" from bottles and cans, I would splurge on these, and other of my favorites from Hostess. I was also a big Dolly Madison fan. These snack cames were much richer, fluffier, and better back in those days.
