    Me and my friends had the hostess scam down- buy tons of boxes at the day old bakery outlet, sell the twikies and ding dongs and susie Q's for a dime each at school, and then sell the extra cards at the card shows. The single twikie cards were only in CA and a few other states, and sold for a buck each. 32 years later they sell for about half of that- if you can find any buyers

    Thanks for posting the ads, those companion pieces are always so cool. Here's one from '62

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)
