Having an extra 10 or 20 cents to buy a kite or rent comic books above those hawker stalls... or even getting ice cream from the vendors riding motorcycles with side carriers containing ice cream in the freezer boxes.. the homemade popsicles ice cream are the cheapest then, 5 to 10 cents in the 70s... 😁😁😁👍👍👍
