I got a set of towels for my Mom for Christmas, I think or at least a special occasion because I remember the lady that waited on me was a neighbor and told me she would wrap them for me. I took them to her house that afternoon after she got home and she did wrap them for me. I was about 10 years old....wow, what a memory and now that I think about it, how cool was that to ride our bikes downtown and not be afraid????? Those were the days!!! That was in Kansas, too, not New Mexico....lol.<BR/><BR/>Marilyn in NMMarilyn in NMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14404077289129488919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-958602628286396737.post-9538005294316848762008-12-01T21:00:00.000-07:002008-12-01T21:00:00.000-07:00Hi Sally, We never got such cool stuff with our ...Hi Sally, We never got such cool stuff with our green stamps. We got stuff like corning ware or bathroom scales. I have a pic of a green stamp dispenser that I took while at a antique store with Jacob.
