[QUOTE="ftrplt, post: 80620, member: 32"] Prices in the 60's were mere pennies on the dollar compared to today's costs. The shop where I worked carried everything from PA to all the old beloved English/European blends. Pouch/box prices were well under a dollar for most blends. Domestic tins (of which there were very few, mostly pouchs/boxes) and tubs were under $2. The imported stuff might run into the $3 range, but that was for 8 ozs!! I had a 40% employee discount; smoked BS 759, DH Standard Full, Punchbowle, John Cotton #1, etc. routinely. PA, CH, SWR, etc. were anywhere from $.15 to $.35 a pouch!! $5 was a big tobacco sale!!
