Garage
I do remember stopping at the local gas station in my first car, a 1960 VW bug. The gas station owner was almost always there. Someone would come out, pump the gas, wash the windshield, and check the oil and the tire pressure. And I remember the outrage I felt the first time that cost me more than three dollars! I bought a set of four recap tires, mounted and balanced for 30 bucks. On a car that would only do 70 with a tail wind recaps were just fine.

I have only bought one pack of cigarettes in my life. They cost me 25 cents at the vending machine. I smoked two of them and said “this is stupid” and I threw the rest away. My opinion of cigarettes has not changed.
