🛒 A trip back in time to Madison shopping prices!

This vintage Castles R.&W. flyer gives us a glimpse into grocery prices from years gone by:

🥫 7 cans of tomatoes for $1.00
🧻 8 rolls of toilet paper for $1.00
🧈 Butter for 65¢ per pound

And they even delivered orders over $5.00!

Seeing old advertisements like this really brings local history to life. Which price surprises you the most? 👀
