myjt, I am from Ohio and I was thinking about the little sales tax papers as I was reading this blog. I used to save them from my parents purchases and my girlfriend and I would use them for "cash" in our cash register when we would play store. Ahh, those old memories from the 50s! Also, does anyone remember Top Value stamps? Seems like I got more of those than the S&H stamps. It seemed to take forever to save up enough of them to make a purchase, but I did "buy" a few things at the redemption center with them when I was a new bride.
