Kids just can't start their journey towards obesity for cheap anymore. I can do you one better. When I was a kid in the early 70s, you could get a 12oz canned soda and a bag of chips for a quarter.

Soft drinks in glass bottles. When I was a kid, soft drinks came in 12oz cans or glass bottles (10 & 16oz). You had to pay a deposit on these (usually five cents). I used to collect these in my neighborhood by the dozens and turn them in. It helped finance my comic book and candy habits for years.
