back in my day there used to be stamp vending machines. You put your 2 or 5c coin in and a single stamp would come out and you would have to detach it from the perforations

Back in my day the local post office was a tiny little cubicle with a slidey window (looked a bit like a confessional booth) that sat inside a wool shop. It was also run by my prep teacher so I sometimes got to see her on the school holidays.
