Answer 2

Here in California, it was kindergarden, Romper Room with Miss Nancy and her Magic Mirror, The Banana Splits, Black Beauty, The Hardy Boys mysteries, the penny candy counter at the grocery, much the same in many ways.
I remember my allowance, every Friday, which gave me the wonderful option of purchasing a comic for ten cents, with five cents left over for candy--bubble -gum balls, root-beer barrels, licorice whips---or a whole five-cent chocolate bar--Herseys, or Heath's with toffee. Sometimes the temptation would be too great, and I would opt for a Cadbury Milk Chocolate bar (ten cents) and a roll of perforated caps to load into my cowboy's pistol. A first-rate choc and a round hundred satisfying loud bangs from my trusty six-shooter, perfect contentment for an earlier and simpler time!

Fake Bart-simpson t-shirts, the fella off the 7-up cans, Duck Hunt, rumours about girls/what happens if you pop a balloon near your face/the old man on the corner/the quiet female teacher with short hair/your uncle/dropping pennies off blackpool tower.
