A guy by the name of Anatoly Shashkin recently Tweeted a photo of a decades old coupon that someone used to buy Crisco oil.
Shashkin, who says he’s worked in the grocery business for 13 years, shared the photo on Tuesday, and it’s already racked up nearly 12,000 likes and 2,000 retweets as of press time.

Of course, Twitter had a field day. How often do you see an ancient coupon like this? Especially if you weren’t even born in the early 80s when the coupon was issued?
Odds are the coupon itself is worth more to a collector…

Some also pointed out the obvious: inflation.
Economically speaking, it probably would have been more useful 35 years ago due to inflation but hey twenty cents is twenty cents
