These are old but the thread is perfectly good!

More pics.

They had hand-written price tags with amounts of $2, $4, $5, and one $7.50 (very full, seen next picture)

Most were about half full, but the highest price-tagged one was almost full.

Here are all the colors that I got:

Now what should I make with all these? Anyone need some?

I don't have a definitive answer for you, but I can tell you that I have a big box of floss and aida that my aunt gave me that's all from the 80s and it all seems fine. It all feels a little different than new stuff either because it's just old or because they made it different back then but it all works great!
