Garage
On base at Hickam AFB in 1970 I mowed yards year round and I would push the mower to the gas station on base to fill up the mower, and my one gallon metal gas can for the day's mowing. For 25 cents I could fill up the mower, the gallon can and still get a Coke and have change back. No state taxes on the gas on base and no taxes on the Coke. And I kept the bottle to turn it in for the deposit. I only made 2 or 3 bucks per yard but it was mostly all profit using dad's mower. It was easy to make 10 bucks a day.
