re: #138 researchok
When we took our summer holidays, my dad always insisted on driving till late at night and we’d stay in a cheap ass motel (my dad said he wanted to give the small business people his support. Yeah right).
The restaurants were closed so we’d each be given some coins to hit the vending machines.
There must have been a company that bought out the entire stock of ten year old, expired cans of Spanish grapefruit juice.
Yup, that’s what we had.
See, with an only child, parents have a little extra cash. Such deprivations are not usually necessary… .
