I remember these 5 cent Milky Ways! And the wrappers were almost exactly like the one in the picture even in the early 50’s.
When I was 5 years old my Mom would give me a quarter in the morning before breakfast and tell me to walk to the Safeway that was about 3 blocks away and with this quarter buy a loaf of Kilpatricks Thin sliced sandwich bread, and with the 10 cents remaining I could buy a candy bar for myself and one for my brother Joe. I always got a Snickers for me and a Milky Way for Joey. Such a deal!
You have to be six years older than Christ to have memories of prices like this. LOL

More Candy Bar Trivia
My Mom used to tell us kids that when she was a little girl during the Depression if she was lucky enough to have a nickel she would buy herself a Three Musketeers bar, because she got the most bang for her nickel.
The original Three Musketeer bars actually had THREE small, individual bars, one each of chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, hence the name Three Musketeers.
And the thrifty soda pop choice was a Nehi for a nickel with 10 oz. as opposed to 6 oz. for a Coca Cola.
