I remember. Also, we had to walk there, 2 miles each way, in the snow. Those were the days!

I used to love getting Thrifty's Ice Cream when I was little. Now at my local Rite-Aid you'd be lucky to get served within 5 minutes and a few calls from the old lady working the register over the intercom to get someone to help. When someone finally emerges to help you, it's a sullen teenager who's hating life and looks at you like you just cut off his emo bangs.

Zankou's is inferior to the all mighty RoRo's Chicken on Sunset. I can pick up a quarter chicken (white or dark) with a side salad, hummus, rice, and a couple pitas for $5. FIVE DOLLARS!!

I miss Chocolate Fudge Ripple ice cream!!!
There is an all-you-can-eat Chinese restaurant near the Kitchen in Silverlake. Lunch is under 5 bucks, even with a drink. One of these days I'll have to write it up.

Nothing beats a Honeywheat Chocolate Donut ($.89) from Bob's Donuts at the Farmer's Market. 1000 of Cheerios gave their lives for your donut.
