$0.35 for a slice of pizza. $0.35 to get on the train or bus. And I remember the first time gas went above $1.00/gallon. The old pumps didn't go up that high and they were charging you by the half gallon.

When I was in high school, I was a Pizza delivery guy. Best job ever for a high school kid - got to drive around, listen to the radio, and smoke cigs (still smoked back then) and get paid. Was awesome.
At end of week - I would stop at the local Circle K Citgo and fill up my 79 Subaru GL Hatchback and get a pack of smokes - total was about $10. Gas was 87 cents a gallon.
Side note - had a thing going with a girl I was dating at the time - she lived a few blocks away and would order the minimum delivery of $5 and give an address that was at the far reach of our delivery area - which would in theory take about 45mins round trip. Took me about 2mins to get to her house. Would um...hang out for 40mins or so then head back to work.
