See if you can get hold of a copy of the "Historical Abstract of the United States"---ask your reference librarian.
She/he may also be able to help point you to a site that can get you some cost of living estimates, or you can see about pulling price information from old newspaper ads or catalogs. OLD CATALOGS ARE A WONDERFUL GIFT FOR HISTORIANS--see if you can raid an attic or bookstore. (I'd start with a Google search for "cost of living" 1966 and start checking the links....)
Also see about a book called "Timetables in History".
Think Facts on File has a huge book called "The Sixties", which is a pretty wide-scope look at the decade.
Hit the history shelves, and just SCAN; grab any title that looks relevant to the era, and scan the index/table of contents. Also consider cross-checking cultural/pop history of the era.
Good luck!

New York Times and other papers sell archived editions. Or go to the library and look up that year on microfiche; its free
