We never really had the green stamps here in this area that I remember, but I did see them when we would visit family.  Kind of looked like the Subway stamps you could/can collect.  But green in color.

As a kid I remember the savings bonds stamps - other kids got to bring money for them, but we never had it, so I saw my 1st savings bond when my dh's grandmother gave 1 to our son when he was born.

I remember my mom getting glasses in boxes of laundry detergent.  Dishes at the local Gulf station - still would love to find the dishes myself - her's were a green color that had a picture, I believe, of the inside of a log cabin.  Towels, I beleive, were also gotten this way.  And jelly jar glasses.  Many years ago, flour sacks were also used for sewing children's clothing, I believe.  Society reused more, I think.

My day to day dinnerware was actually bought piece by piece at the local Dillons store as a bonus buy when shopping.
