Go Shopping with The Brittingham's 1960's

In the early & mid 60's every year before school started Dad would go to Mr. Fowler at the Finance Company uptown Nevada Mo. and borrow $500.00, he would then come home with 5 $100.00 dollar bills gather all of us kids around and lay out the money on the coffee table in a fan pattern. He was so proud of his credit and he loved having money! The following morning we would head to Kansas City to the Zoo, shopping and one time it even bought a side of beef!
