Now it's time for Whatever Happened To, where we revisit something that used to be everywhere and find out where it went.

Today, whatever happened to S&H Green Stamps? For a decade, a trip to the grocery store often meant coming home with groceries and a handful of little green stamps.

The Sperry & Hutchinson Company launched the program in 1896.

Shoppers earned stamps at participating stores, commonly at a rate of one for every 10 cents spent.

The idea lives on in grocery rewards, frequent flyer miles, and credit card points.

Her dinner rolls are legendary to this day, the kind of baking that takes love and work.

And that brings me to S&H green stamps.

Now, if you're of a certain age, you probably remember them.

Stores gave you green stamps when you made purchases, particularly grocery stores.

We had a showroom where you could take your books to redeem them, and for her, I think it felt like she had free money.

The first reward I remember was a new Sunbeam mixer.

The previous mixer she had wasn't up to the challenge of heavy, sticky bread dough she'd made, so she saved enough green stamps to get a better one.

She used those stamps for practical tools, an electric skillet that let her control the heat better than cooking on a stovetop, a good icing bowl, a set of sharp knives.

Jimmy, did you, when you were a kid, did you, um, uh, ever have the green stamp thing where your mom had that book?

S&H Green Stamps.

My grandmother did.

And you had to, you had to take a sponge and wet them down and put them in the book.
