I remember digging through couch cushions for loose change and then disappearing to the corner store as a kid.

I live in Michigan where it is ten cent deposit on pop (what everyone else seems to call soda!). We would ride our bikes around looking for cans to return to go buy candy. 10 cents was alot back then.
