In 1950 there were 65 neighborhood grocery stores in Pocatello. Today there are 2. We will take a 1960 snapshot of all stores from a then and now perspective. The social and economic reasons for the development of this unique and interesting way Pocatello residents shopped and interacted will be explored. Remembrances and quirky things such as S&H Green Stamps will be discussed. Bring your memories photos and experiences of the places your parents and grandparents shopped, and where you bought your penny candy.
