My son is at camp this week and at the end of every day, one of the parents gives quarters to the campers to get a gum ball.

I was thinking about growing up in the early to mid 90s when I’d beg for quarters for the gum ball machine.

Vendors must have made a killing back then.

Excellent movie in the early 90s about vendors - Flesh and Bone. Dennis Quaid, Paltrow, James Caan, Meg Ryan; neo noir in West Texas.

Nobody here is married or has daughters? The obvious answers are designer handbags and designer shoes.
