[KittyKatz]

I know this probably isn't the place for this question, but I need help...

Does anybody know the price of bread,and milk in 1967 in Canada...I can only find the U.S price.
I also need the price of a house and car if possible......Please and thanks.I'making a poster for my sister's birthday with some fun facts from 1967... any help would be appreciated.

Your best bet is probably Statistics Canada - they have a historical collection, but I'm sure it'll take a lot of time to wade through and search.

Good luck!

In 1967, Brooke Bond Foods contracted with George Wade and Son Ltd. to produce a line of miniatures to be included in specially marked boxes of Red Rose Tea in certain parts of Canada.

^ We collected those (I was born in '61) - sure wish we would have kept them, they are worth money now!

Kitty, another thing I thought of - whether it's doable or not depends upon where you live. Look up newspaper archives - they would be a treasure trove of info.

When I saw the images of the coins, I thought "Montreal hosted the World's Expo!" Canada turned 100.

For 1967 facts from the papers, do you have a newspaper microfilm section at the main branch of your library system?
Grocery ads from the time are certain to be shown on the pages.

You can click on different decades of Oster blenders to see what the 1960s version looked like!

My mom had these too! I can remember then lined up in the kitchen window. She is still a tea drinker

Ironically enough the Atlantic Superstore in my area had their WONDER white and whole wheat bread in the middle of the store for $1.00 (not even a sale price).....and most had a 50% off sticker, so each loaf was $0.50.....even the cashier said "$0.50 for a loaf a bread. Damn that's a really good deal. Where'd you find that?"

Oh to be 9 again.............pretty sure I would make the same mistakes! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
