im old enough to remember a time before UPC barcodes and when they were made mandatory on all items, so that mad magazine actually had a cover complaining about it

The clerk would write the prices on the bag at the checkout.

I remember them doing that on a paper bag at a small grocery we used in Maine while on vacation. The bag was your receipt.

They also did that on the bag at a local deli.

My favorite part is when she dialed the numbers and then goes "now what?" as if there is a button to actually place the call. LOL
