Yes, I remember and its hard to believe things have changed so drastically.

I remember a time when I lived in Houston in the 1960s during a "gas war" (remember those?), gasoline was 18¢ a gallon.

In the late 60’s my friends and I always went Christmas shopping at our local mall. We ate at Woolworths every time. My mother told us, if we ate there we had to tip. I remember they always had balloons that you could pop if you ordered a banana split. One year we got a .08 one. Yes, we were excited. I think the balloons had values .01 to .79 cents. Good memories!

Oh yes! Woolworth's had the BEST BLTs ever! And their hot fudge sundaes and ice cream sodas were wonderful.Oh, how I miss those days!

Woolworths had the best pizza and fried chicken. I have not found anything that even comes close to their food.

I remember when the plain, regular hamburgers at McDonalds were about $0.35. HA!

Blast from the past....

Yes, @JoyFilled Warrior I remember Evening in Paris in the dark blue bottle. That and the Tangee lipstick (which I think is still sold at Vermont Store)...like playing dress-up!

I remember! In 1948 I was 6 and we sat at the lunch counter eating a BLT or hot dog, delicious store made donuts with a hint of vanilla.

The toy department was just beside the lunch counter. Many items were 10 cents, a wicker basket with twin dolls for instance!

Took my three kids to a Woolworth's in the city during the Christmas holidays. (We took a city bus--which was so exciting for them---ugh!)

We bought 2 parakeets for a few bucks each. Toby and Patches. They lived for decades it seems, well, not that long. But they had a good life. They were just a couple of bucks each.

I don't remember anything else about Woolworth's though. Other than the birds were downstairs.....Kids knew exactly where to go.....

Boy do I miss Woolworth's!!! I loved their variety of items, they had it all and it was just a wonderful place to shop or browse. There was a Woolworth's in my city where I grew up and I often went to Manhattan to the big Woolworth's where they had food. Oh how I loved their pies, the best at the time. I always looked forward to sitting on the stools that lined up along the counter. It was so relaxing and exciting! Yes, I do miss Woolworth's and nothing has ever replaced that store since for me.

Yes I remember Woolworth.

I miss the good old days or maybe they were good because I was a kid.

Never knew what they served at those counters. That menu is way before my time.

@Buffalogal47 @sugarbee @JoyFilled Warrior My two cousins and I had Tiny Tears. We would buy the small variety pack of Gerber Baby Cereal and mix the cereal with water to "feed" our baby dolls. We also had Toni dolls. I still have mine and have collected more Toni dolls in recent years. About fifteen years ago, I designed and made Toni doll clothes and sold them online.

Like most little girls back in the 50's, I loved my dolls especially my Ginny dolls, that I still have. Those were the popular dolls just before Barbie.
