IN THE 1940S, LONG PRETZELS WERE 3 FOR A NICKEL. THERE WAS A HUGE ASSORTMENT OF PENNY CANDIES FOR sale; some were even 2 or 3 for a penny. I particularly remember one that I adored as a child, having been born in 1941. It was sort of a creamy fudge sold for a penny in a tiny gold colored fluted tin cup with a miniature spoon for eating. I couldn't get enough of that candy! does anyone remember that one?.....I grew up in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, NY. Also, does anyone remember Mello-Roll ice cream?

A Hershey Bar cost 5 cents in 1927. This was also the year Raisinets were introduced to the market.

It depends on the size of the chocolate bar. The equivalent of 1 to 10 cents.
