During World War II, people acquired rationed goods through a system of ration books issued by the government, which contained stamps that could be exchanged for limited quantities of essential items like food, fuel, and clothing. Citizens had to present these stamps at stores, where merchants tracked usage to ensure compliance with rationing regulations.
