Oh yes! I got hired because I could skate so well and my parents said no. Their stated reasoning was I needed to do homework after school instead of play around on roller skates! After that there was no way in hell I was doing homework. Oh well it wasn't like I was doing it before that.
Try 11/27 ;D when are you planning your wedding for?
I pressed the green button
JJ Newburys dept stores all had ice cream fountains hidden inside, and stores were in the strangest places all over the country.
Wedding party in snow suits?
:Hug:
Me too, I thought it was a link to porn....
damit it is cold 38 degrees outside
We had a Kress by the library. Taquitos and a fountain coke mmmmmm (where my mother would wax poetic that the coke was too sweet and not like it used to be). Didn't ruin my taquitos
The soda counter was the the only reason I wanted to go shopping with mom way back then.
Newbury's had a sales gimmick on Banana Splits. Pick a colored balloon from a peg board. Similar to this.
When popped a small price tag came out. The customer would be charged on that tag. Almost always at a discount, often %50 off.
We did get a few for free.

Okay, good to know that was a real memory. I thought I dreamed that happened, when I woke up the next morning.When popped a small price tag came out. The customer would be charged on that tag. Almost always at a discount, often %50 off.

I worked at an AW as a sophomore in HS '66 as a fry cook. Miserable job, coated in vaporized grease at shift's end. Mom washed my clothes separately lol
My daughter did, on Halloween! It was 85 that day though.
Fry cook funk. Oh man. Did it wash out for school hours, or did every class smell a bit like fries?
Dude at the A&W had the best pot at the best prices, and was always in stock. Then you had to buy huge food order to keep the manager happy and pass cash.
after my first week, Mom dedicated a set of my clothes for the job so it wouldn't ruin everything I had. The smell was so unappealing she'd be on my ass as soon as I got home to get the clothes in the washer. Yep, there was residual smell that never came out.
I had a girlfriend that worked at Carl's Junior, her uniforms smelled like grease, and I made sure she took it off as soon as possible...
