In S. CA in 1n 1964 regular gas was 9.9 cents (don't think there was
unleaded back then), the attendant pumped your gas, checked your oil,
tire pressure, and washed your windows, and you got plaid stamps.
There were gas stations on every corner and so there were price wars,
and each gave some kind of token gift, glasses and steak knives were
popular.

Der Wienerschnitzel was 18 cents, condiments were extra.
