    I feel such a great deal of comfort from watching these ads. I was an 80's baby and I think the comfort comes not from it making me feel young or free, but reminding me of when I had a family. It was nice to have parents, grandparents, and great grandparents. I remember seeing these commercials at different homes from my childhood, like at my Great Grandma's or my Granddad's house. I still have a husband, daughter, sister and her two kids but that's a far cry from what I started out with. I'm not complaining and I'm grateful for what I do have, but it's really nice to remember.

    What I appreciate about these vintage commercials is how they could not rely on digital graphics to enhance/carry a commercial so more attention was paid to the music and actors.

    I love the retro commercials. For some odd reason I find them very comforting. Maybe it’s because they bring back memories of a simpler time in my life. Now if you had some that were 8 or 10 hours long, then I could fall asleep to them….lol That would be wonderful! 😊🥱😴

    I was born in 89 so I guess I'm a 80s baby and 90s kid but I really wish I was old enough to have experienced that time period, it seemed so cool...the movies and music from that time are certified classics in my opinion... How the hell am I nostalgic for a time period I truly couldn't understand and enjoy..

My mom took me over to her house and her whole family was gathered around the TV just waiting to see her son on national TV for the first time. When it came on and he appeared, the whole family went crazy yelling and screaming. I think I was about 10yo but I still remember.

    23:20 This commercial for pain relief tablets sealed in individual packets shows the result of the Tylenol poisonings of the 1980s. Before that most bottled products didn't have a safety seal. After that, and continuing today, you can't buy a bottle, can, or box of anything that doesn't have some sort of safety seal on it.

    I was born in 60 and I remember most of these 80’s commercials. No Nonsense Pantyhose… do they even sell pantyhose anymore? 😂
    Riding an Amtrak train across America went from $250-$275 in one decade. What a deal!
    My favorite is the Christmas commercials Hallmark and especially Folgers. Good coffee too and I still drink it today!
    But oh how I miss the Mervyn’s store. I use to love going there and buying my L.A. Gears high top shoes. They were at least a $100 or more but well worth it! Good times! 😊

    • @msbigdog1460
      @msbigdog1460 Год назад +1

      Well, I think pantyhose have gone the way of the dinosaurs too. When I grocery shop I buy a 10# bag of onions and then I store them in pantyhose to preserve them. Drop in an onion into the leg, tie a knot, then keep that up until both legs are full. Tie them at the end and hang them up in the pantry, if onions don't touch and have good air circulation they last a long time. But now I have a bag of onions but can't find any pantyhose, I've looked at Walmart, Dollar General and every drug store in my area. Either I'll have to order them or figure something else out. Never thought pantyhose would become obsolete 😂🤣😂🤣😂😭
