Those vegemite glasses are long gone from supermarket shelves because there not 'tamper proof' (can you believe there is such a thing we have to be worried about). Some jam brands used to come in jars that turned into glasses as well....they've gone as well. How things have changed since we were kids huh? Even clothes....as a kid most of my clothes fit in a draw......now kids have walk in wardrobes! 2 4 Quote

Rip Snorter Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 All the name brand jelly glasses were also drinking glasses when I was a boy. At matinee movies in the early '50's they would give away dishes and glassware. Gas stations would as well. I can recall a few years when my parents were just starting out and those were what we used . 6 Quote
