Do you remember glass bottles with metal caps and pull tab cans for soda pop, or 8 track players?

I was thinking the other day while reading how long we have been fighting in Afghanistan of how many ordinary everyday things have changed. Live TV back in the Vietnam era. Or that candy bars were 10 cents and large too. A can of pop was 10 cents as well. Then that got me to thinking not only has the can of pop changed in price but the way it was packaged, bottles too. Can you remember the old metals cans with pull tabs? I remember craft projects where you could make jewelry and such by linking the pull tabs together. What about bottles? Do you remember when nearly all soda pop came in glass bottle with metal caps you needed a trusty bottle opener to crack open? At least you got your whole deposit back when you returned the bottle not this recycle scam they got going now. Added note, how many of you remember being in a car that had an 8 track player?
