Got to select a cake to have on my T-break and I also got paid. I think I was about 14 at the time. Then it was next door into the sweetie shop to help out and usually came home with a quarter of mixed boilings or a bar of Lindt Chocolate.
I had pocket money from grandmother in return for housework, mum, because she wasn't around much , and a couple of aunts and uncles that visited every week. Added up to about a pound a week great in the 1960s especially when you think a Saturday job in the 1970s mostly paid between £3-5. I just put my housework rate up. My Grandmother hated cleaning and was willing to pay.
I had pocket money was told how to spend it - I had to buy my comics, put some in my Municipal Bank safe and what was left I could spend on sweets.
