My brother was 4 or 5. He'd stand in line, then tell the guy what he wanted. Then he would just walk away. He didn't understand that you had to give money. The owner would say, "Hey kid!!!" Maybe the first 3-5 times, my brother really didn't understand. But after, he did have money, he just wasn't giving it up.

I found the jingle on YouTube. That site is an unbelievable asset.

Wow!!! I can't believe lots of you never have seen a Mister Softee. It was the official start of summer when a Mister Softee truck came around. They would stop in the middle of a long street with the jingle playing super loud. When the kids heard that jingle, you begged your parents like hell to get a dime for a M.S cone. You just HAD to get there before the truck moved on-God Forbid!!!!!

I found my mom's grocery money stash by climbing a room divider of shelves. Treated many to cones...mom was NOT happy with me.

"But MOM, I shared!" didn't quite do it.
