Were credit cards even widely used during the time TAGS was on? However there WAS credit. If you'll recall in the episode where Ellie Walker, pharmacy gal, ran for city council, all the menfolk cut off their wives (or aunt's) credit until they agreed not to support Ellie.
I remember Mrs Campbell trying on a hat & apparently being told she needed cash so she had to put it back. I can remember in the mid 60's/early 70's that the few times we shopped ast the local dept store mama just signed a slip of paper, they mailed her the receipt, & she paid her bill. No card needed. And I loved the bills as the store always enclosed a plastic wrapped sheet of smell good paper in scents like Chanel No. 5 or L'air Du Temps. I'd stick those in my nightgown drawer.
