I/me I went to the store; so, She and I went to the store. They gave me a reward; so They gave her and me a reward.

For further information, consult an old English teacher. Heaven only knows what they teach the new ones.
I bought a bottle of Old English when I was a teenager.

My dad told me to go easy on that stuff...

Was he an Old English teacher?

Anyway, you are a font of information...thanks!
