Cheaper tackle shops for the less financial secure anglers will almost always sell the old slot type gazette bungs you mention. I grab them whenever I see them because they seem to have lost favour with many pikers. I find they're great floats. Easily adjustable, they move in a jiffy and they make excellent sunken floats for 'sunken flat paternoster rigs' so don't listen to the 'experts'. Use your bungs and enjoy their simplicity.
