In this video we're going through 12 penny sweets from the 1970s - not just what they were, but exactly what they cost, what happened to them, and why a sweet that cost a penny in 1965 cost five pence by 1982. Same sweet. Very different world. Which one did YOU always point at first? Tell us in the comments - we read every single one.
