    Oh Yes, I remember those glass milk bottles and cardboard stoppers. Here in South Africa the petrol pump attendant still washes the windscreen, checks the oil and the tyres, but no trading stamps.

    Out in the country, where I grew up here in Alabama back in the 1940s and 50s, no one delivered milk. We went to the barn and got it. And for the folks that didn’t own a cow, they bought it from the neighbors. However, in 1978-79 when I lived in Salt Lake City, Utah, the milk man delivered milk in glass bottles with hard paper stoppers.
