15 cents for a candy floss in 1962 is equal to about $1.06 in 2010 dollars. PAY NO MORE!

How could these people make money with prices like these? ~frank

The ingredients cost a lot less in 1962 and the Shriners probably set the prices. Back then, the Grotto made their money from the ticket sales and didn't want the buyers to bitch about the high prices for food and not buy tickets next year.

What's a vendors package?
