How to Shop with War Ration Book Two, the 1943 U.S. World War II (WWII) war ration poster ("...to Buy Canned, Bottled and Frozen Fruits and Vegetables; Dried Fruits, Juices and all Canned Soups"; "1. Use this ration book. You may use one or all of your family's ration books when you shop. You may not shop with loose ration stamps."; "2. Use blue stamps only. All blue point stamps marked A, B, and C are good during the first ration period. They add up to 48 points for each member of the family."; "A, B, and C stamps are good in the first ration period."; "3. The numbers show points. You will not be able to get 'change' in point stamps, so save your low-value stamps for buying low-point foods."; "Use 8 and 5 point stamps first if you can"; "4. Look at the point values before you buy. Points have nothing to do with prices or quality. Point values will be the same in all stores."; "Look for ounce weight on label"; "5. Give the stamps to your grocer. Tear out stamps in the presence of your grocer - or tear them out in the presence of the delivery boy."; "6. Fresh fruits and vegetables are not rationed. Use them instead of rationed foods whenever possible. Try out recipes that make your rations go further."; "Your point allowance must last the full ration period."; "Plan How Many Points You Will Use Each Time Before You Shop."; "Buy early in the week."; "Foods are going to our fighting men. They come first! Your ration gives you your fair share of the foods that are left."; "Buy early in the day") featuring artwork explaining how to use your War Ration Book in a grocery store!
