I see a number of people "complaining" about this thread's author having the nerve to complain! There is no harm in remembering how to be thrifty and conserve; especially with the state the the current economy and what could very easily be useful information to spoiled brats in the next couple of years. This description of life 50 years ago by the author is accurate. My mother used to take those cute flowery grain sacks that fed the livestock on my grandfather's farm and make shirts for my sister and I...and we loved them!
