When we (my buds and I) were 12 and 13 years old, we used to walk into the general store in our home town WITH shotguns in our hands, and buy shot shells to walk thru town with the guns/ammo to go squirrel hunt. Poor boys couldn't afford a box of shells so the store owner would sell them to us individually for ¢.50 each. We could all afford to buy two or three and that was enough for a success story for squirrel. If not, we always found plenty of tactical stumps, strategically tossed cans into the river to shoot from the bridge as they passed beneath us floating...but nary a single unspent shell ever made it home. We even used to be able to bike all over and gather soft drink bottles to redeem for a dime each for those shells mentioned!
