Look at the prices of a McDonald….

Look at the prices of a McDonald’s menu in 1972! Good ole days…
Big Mac, Large Fry, Hot Apple Pie (sometimes), and Coke. My go to back in the day AND still today. But I was much happier when I got change back from my dollar.
I remembered that if you got A’s on your report card and brought it to McDonalds. you got a free cheeseburger for each A. You got a free hamburger for B’s.
Those hot apple pies weren’t hot. They were scorching!!
