It's not often you can buy sweets at decades-old prices, but that's exactly the case at an old-fashioned soda fountain in Ava, Missouri.

The restaurant known as the "Ava Drug Store" is selling ice cream for just a nickel a scoop, and you can get up to three scoops during a visit.

You can also get a small drink for five cents and large drink for ten.

So, if you were to get three scoops of ice cream and a large drink your bill would be a whopping 25 cents.

That's a very enticing deal in these tough economic times.

Many of the customers are local elementary, middle and high school students.
