Just another look at the price of food back in
December, 1970 ….. Miracle Mart claimed to have the lowest prices in Minot.

t Miracle mart. Some of the prices from over 40 years ago – Bananas – 12 cents
pound … Baby food – 11 cents a jar …. Campbell’s Tomato Soup – 11 cents a can
….. Select T-Bone steak - $1.28 lb. ….. 10 pounds of red potatoes – 38 cents ……
Hamburger – 79 cents a pound and one of my favorites Center Cut Chuck Roast –
68 cents pound
