Who remembers .........
 

:) Who remembers -

Waiting til 7P.M. to call long distance, because it was cheaper?

And have a timer next to the phone.

Who remembers...

pasting S&H Green stamps in a book and when you had enough books, you went to a store and got great merchandise!

:coolsmiley: Just checked with GOOGLE and you can still get them on EBay! They showed stamps, catalogs, and the signs that hung outside businesses.

Anyone remember: A&P plaid stamps? :popcorn:

I recall that.

How about the dreaded Party-Line. I like the way it is now much better. My Father watched that phone bill like a hawk!

There are a lot of Who Remembers but this is a Family Oriented Forum!

Very Nice Thread! :clap2::clap2:

Getting gasoline WITH oil check, tire pressure chevked,, windshield cleaned.

:coolsmiley: And with $3.00 worth of gas ..... maybe a free drinking glass. :a040:

"Fill it with hi-test."

The first TV was black and white (only), rabbit ears!!, and then we got the first COLOR TV on the block!! I even remember the 4 button ultrasonic remote control, on/off, volume up/down, and change channel ( only had 2 to 13 as I recall).

How many remember the hand crank telephones that mounted on the wall and required you to stand to use it? When I was young we had one in our farmhouse in Iowa.

:) Sometimes you would put aluminum foil on the ends for better reception. :laugh:

Who remembers when the first TV dinners came out. Aluminum foil bottom and top... Mmmm ... loved me some Salisbury steak, but don't forget to cut open a hole over the apple crisp looking goo

I dew, & remember them in Iowa as well.




:coolsmiley:

Don't forget the aluminum foil.
